Subject: [PATCH v2] RDMA/uverbs: Free all radix tree nodes in uverbs_destroy_api()
Date: Sun, 15 Nov 2026 19:59:11 +0530	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261115142911.21321-1-kartikey406@gmail.com> (raw)

syzbot reported a memory leak of radix_tree_node objects allocated
while registering a siw device:

  radix_tree_node_alloc+0x81/0x1a0 lib/radix-tree.c:276
  radix_tree_insert+0x140/0x390 lib/radix-tree.c:712
  uapi_add_elm+0x61/0x140 uverbs_uapi.c:41
  uverbs_alloc_api+0x85/0xc50 uverbs_uapi.c:659
  siw_newlink+0x36a/0x3f0 siw_main.c:433

radix_tree_insert() can fail with -ENOMEM after it has already linked
intermediate nodes into the tree, leaving them with no entries.
uverbs_destroy_api() only removes populated slots through
uapi_remove_range(), and radix tree nodes are freed only as a side
effect of deleting an entry, so these empty nodes are leaked when the
uapi is destroyed.

Call xa_destroy() after removing the entries so that all remaining
nodes are freed.

Closes: https://syzkaller.appspot.com/bug?extid=d60be66dd00b4490fa96
Fixes: 9ed3e5f44772 ("IB/uverbs: Build the specs into a radix tree at runtime")

Changes in v2:
- Drop the dummy insert/delete workaround in uapi_add_elm()
- Call xa_destroy() in uverbs_destroy_api() to free all remaining
  nodes, as suggested by Jason

Compile tested only.
