Subject: [PATCH v1 04/12] net/ice/base: fix memory leak in recipe handling
Date: Tue,  2 Sep 2025 18:26:54 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <bc0a3f0b28bfb84d7a8a372d43950c4730c4a189.1756833701.git.anatoly.burakov@intel.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <cover.1756833701.git.anatoly.burakov@intel.com>

From: Pandi Kumar Maharajan <pandi.maharajan@intel.com>

Advanced filter operations (apply/remove GENEVE/VXLAN filters) trigger
the call chain: ice_add_adv_rule()/ice_rem_adv_rule() -> ice_find_recp()
-> ice_get_recp_frm_fw(). Each call to ice_get_recp_frm_fw() creates new
linked list entries for SW recipe tracking without cleaning up previous
entries for the same recipe ID. The linked list then continuously grows
with each filter add/remove operation, leading to excessive heap usage
over time.

Fix the memory leak by adding logic to remove the duplicate entries
before adding new ones for the same recipe ID.

Fixes: fed0c5ca5f19 ("net/ice/base: support programming a new switch recipe")
