Subject: [PATCH net-next 3/7] net: mana: free HWC comp_buf after destroying the EQ
Date: Tue, 14 Jul 2026 20:29:37 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260715032942.3945317-4-longli@microsoft.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260715032942.3945317-1-longli@microsoft.com>
mana_hwc_destroy_cq() freed hwc_cq->comp_buf before destroying the CQ and
EQ. comp_buf is dereferenced by mana_hwc_comp_event(), which the EQ
interrupt handler invokes; freeing it while the EQ was still registered
let a late handler touch freed memory.
Destroy the CQ and EQ first -- the EQ teardown deregisters the IRQ and
fences in-flight handlers -- then free comp_buf and hwc_cq.
Fixes: ca9c54d2d6a5 ("net: mana: Add a driver for Microsoft Azure Network Adapter (MANA)")
