Subject: [PATCH iwl-net v2 1/5] ice: check the auxiliary device pointer under adev_mutex
Date: Fri, 23 Oct 2026 09:02:53 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261023070258.730168-2-poros@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20261023070258.730168-1-poros@redhat.com>
ice_set_channels() and the mqprio path of ice_setup_tc() test
cdev->adev before taking pf->adev_mutex and dereference it afterwards.
ice_unplug_aux_dev() clears the pointer under the mutex from the
service task, from ice_prepare_for_reset() and from the devlink RoCE
and iWARP parameter handlers, none of which hold the RTNL lock, so the
pointer can go away between the test and the device_lock() call.
Take pf->adev_mutex first and test the pointer under it. Without a
device the mutex is released again and the rebuild runs unlocked as
before.
Fixes: a6a0974aae42 ("ice: Prevent set_channel from changing queues while RDMA active")
Fixes: 4b31fd4d77ff ("ice: Fix RDMA VSI removal during queue rebuild")

v2:
- new patch, the pointer test raced with ice_unplug_aux_dev()
