Subject: [PATCH] dmaengine: idxd: Avoid destroying the device workqueue twice
Date: Wed, 11 Nov 2026 10:10:26 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261111021026.3354620-1-yaokai34@huawei.com> (raw)
If idxd_probe() fails after idxd_setup_internals() succeeds,
idxd_cleanup_internals() destroys idxd->wq. The PCI probe error path
then calls idxd_free(), whose put_device() invokes
idxd_conf_device_release() and destroys the same workqueue again.
The err_evl path in idxd_setup_internals() has the same problem.
This can corrupt the workqueue list or access freed memory.
Clear idxd->wq after both error-path destroy_workqueue() calls and
only destroy a non-NULL workqueue in the release callback. The NULL
check also handles failures before the workqueue is created, while
preserving its destruction on normal device removal.
Fixes: 3d33de353b1f ("dmaengine: idxd: Fix not releasing workqueue on .release()")
