Subject: [PATCH v4 1/1] usbnet:fix NPE during rx_complete
Date: Wed,  2 Apr 2025 16:58:59 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <4c9ef2efaa07eb7f9a5042b74348a67e5a3a7aea.1743584159.git.luying1@xiaomi.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <cover.1743584159.git.luying1@xiaomi.com>

From: Ying Lu <luying1@xiaomi.com>

Missing usbnet_going_away Check in Critical Path.
The usb_submit_urb function lacks a usbnet_going_away
validation, whereas __usbnet_queue_skb includes this check.

This inconsistency creates a race condition where:
A URB request may succeed, but the corresponding SKB data
fails to be queued.

Subsequent processes:
(e.g., rx_complete → defer_bh → __skb_unlink(skb, list))
attempt to access skb->next, triggering a NULL pointer
dereference (Kernel Panic).

Fixes: 04e906839a05 ("usbnet: fix cyclical race on disconnect with work queue")
