This was not the case though:\nmlx5_vdpa_destroy_mr_resources() and mlx5_cmd_cleanup_async_ctx()\nwere not able to do so. This caused the splat below when adding\na vdpa device without a MAC address.\n\nThis patch fixes these remaining issues:\n\n- Makes mlx5_vdpa_destroy_mr_resources() return early if called on\n uninitialized resources.\n\n- Moves mlx5_cmd_init_async_ctx() early on during device addition\n because it can't fail. This means that mlx5_cmd_cleanup_async_ctx()\n also can't fail. To mirror this, move the call site of\n mlx5_cmd_cleanup_async_ctx() in mlx5_vdpa_free().\n\nAn additional comment was added in mlx5_vdpa_free() to document\nthe expectations of functions called from this context.\n\nSplat:\n\n mlx5_core 0000:b5:03.2: mlx5_vdpa_dev_add:3950:(pid 2306) warning: No mac address provisioned?\n ------------[ cut here ]------------\n WARNING: CPU: 13 PID: 2306 at kernel/workqueue.c:4207 __flush_work+0x9a/0xb0\n [...]\n Call Trace:\n <TASK>\n ? __try_to_del_timer_sync+0x61/0x90\n ? __timer_delete_sync+0x2b/0x40\n mlx5_vdpa_destroy_mr_resources+0x1c/0x40 [mlx5_vdpa]\n mlx5_vdpa_free+0x45/0x160 [mlx5_vdpa]\n vdpa_release_dev+0x1e/0x50 [vdpa]\n device_release+0x31/0x90\n kobject_cleanup+0x37/0x130\n mlx5_vdpa_dev_add+0x327/0x890 [mlx5_vdpa]\n vdpa_nl_cmd_dev_add_set_doit+0x2c1/0x4d0 [vdpa]\n genl_family_rcv_msg_doit+0xd8/0x130\n genl_family_rcv_msg+0x14b/0x220\n ? __pfx_vdpa_nl_cmd_dev_add_set_doit+0x10/0x10 [vdpa]\n genl_rcv_msg+0x47/0xa0\n ? __pfx_genl_rcv_msg+0x10/0x10\n netlink_rcv_skb+0x53/0x100\n genl_rcv+0x24/0x40\n netlink_unicast+0x27b/0x3b0\n netlink_sendmsg+0x1f7/0x430\n __sys_sendto+0x1fa/0x210\n ? ___pte_offset_map+0x17/0x160\n ? next_uptodate_folio+0x85/0x2b0\n ? percpu_counter_add_batch+0x51/0x90\n ? filemap_map_pages+0x515/0x660\n __x64_sys_sendto+0x20/0x30\n do_syscall_64+0x7b/0x2c0\n ? do_read_fault+0x108/0x220\n ? do_pte_missing+0x14a/0x3e0\n ? __handle_mm_fault+0x321/0x730\n ? count_memcg_events+0x13f/0x180\n ? handle_mm_fault+0x1fb/0x2d0\n ? do_user_addr_fault+0x20c/0x700\n ? syscall_exit_work+0x104/0x140\n entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x76/0x7e\n RIP: 0033:0x7f0c25b0feca\n [...]\n ---[ end trace 0000000000000000 ]---"}, {"lang": "es", "value": "En el kernel de Linux, se ha resuelto la siguiente vulnerabilidad: vdpa/mlx5: Correcci\u00f3n de la liberaci\u00f3n de recursos no inicializados en la ruta de error el commit en la etiqueta fixes asegur\u00f3 que mlx5_vdpa_free() sea el \u00fanico punto de entrada para eliminar los recursos del dispositivo vdpa agregados en mlx5_vdpa_dev_add(), incluso en la ruta de limpieza de mlx5_vdpa_dev_add(). Esto significa que todas las funciones de mlx5_vdpa_free() deber\u00edan poder manejar recursos no inicializados. Sin embargo, este no fue el caso: mlx5_vdpa_destroy_mr_resources() y mlx5_cmd_cleanup_async_ctx() no pudieron hacerlo. Esto caus\u00f3 el splat a continuaci\u00f3n al agregar un dispositivo vdpa sin una direcci\u00f3n MAC. Este parche corrige estos problemas restantes: - Hace que mlx5_vdpa_destroy_mr_resources() regrese antes si se llama en recursos no inicializados. - Se mueve mlx5_cmd_init_async_ctx() al principio de la adici\u00f3n del dispositivo, ya que no puede fallar. Esto significa que mlx5_cmd_cleanup_async_ctx() tampoco puede fallar. Para reflejar esto, mueva el sitio de llamada de mlx5_cmd_cleanup_async_ctx() a mlx5_vdpa_free(). Se a\u00f1adi\u00f3 un comentario adicional en mlx5_vdpa_free() para documentar las expectativas de las funciones llamadas desde este contexto.
