Subject: Re: [PATCH net v3 5/8] xsk: avoid skb leak in XDP_TX_METADATA case
Date: Wed, 22 Apr 2026 09:31:33 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <f019ae7f3c2ec5fafddfe942eddd6591.sdf.kernel@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260422033650.68457-6-kerneljasonxing@gmail.com>

> From: Jason Xing <kernelxing@tencent.com>
> 
> Fix it by explicitly adding kfree_skb() before returning back to its
> caller.
> 
> How to reproduce it in virtio_net:
> 1. the current skb is the first one (which means no frag and xs->skb is
>    NULL) and users enable metadata feature.
> 2. xsk_skb_metadata() returns a error code.
> 3. the caller xsk_build_skb() clears skb by using 'skb = NULL;'.
> 4. there is no chance to free this skb anymore.
> 
> Closes: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20260415085204.3F87AC19424@smtp.kernel.org/
> Fixes: 30c3055f9c0d ("xsk: wrap generic metadata handling onto separate function")
