Subject: [PATCH] net/xsc: fix use after free in some RXQ cleanup
Date: Tue,  9 Sep 2025 09:04:27 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250909070427.2711048-1-david.marchand@redhat.com> (raw)

Debian 12 gcc complains about a use after free in this cleanup section.

[7/11] Compiling C object drivers/libtmp_rte_net_xsc.a.p/net_xsc_xsc_rx.c.o
In function 'xsc_rss_qp_create',
    inlined from 'xsc_rxq_rss_obj_new' at ../drivers/net/xsc/xsc_rx.c:565:8:
../drivers/net/xsc/xsc_rx.c:501:9: warning: pointer 'req' may be used after
	'free' [-Wuse-after-free]
  501 |         free(req);
      |         ^~~~~~~~~
../drivers/net/xsc/xsc_rx.c:501:9: note: call to 'free' here

Indeed, req may be free'd twice, as an error in the cleanup loop may
jump back to the set_qp_fail label.

Instead, skip the erroneous rxq and don't touch errno since all the code
jumping to set_qp_fail already sets it.

Fixes: 3991c890fb4c ("net/xsc: optimize RSS queue creation")
