Subject: [PATCH] net/mlx5: fix out-of-bounds write in Rx software ring
Date: Tue, 22 Apr 2025 08:37:54 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250422063754.3429965-1-patrykochal@gmail.com> (raw)

From: "Patryk Ochal (Redge Technologies)" <patrykochal@gmail.com>

If the vectorized Rx burst function runs short on available mbufs,
the CQ processing may write past the end of the RX software ring.

This happens because `rxq_cq_process_v()` populates the software ring
and accesses mbufs before validating the associated CQEs. If the number
of available mbufs is insufficient, this can result in out-of-bounds
access.

This patch adds a limit to ensure CQ processing does not exceed the
number of mbufs that have actually been replenished and posted.

Fixes: 03e0868b4cd7 ("net/mlx5: fix deadlock due to buffered slots in Rx SW ring")
