Subject: [PATCH] dmaengine: idxd: Fix double free in idxd_setup_wqs()
Date: Mon, 11 Aug 2025 13:43:39 +0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <aJnJW3iYTDDCj9sk@stanley.mountain> (raw)

The clean up in idxd_setup_wqs() has had a couple bugs because the error
handling is a bit subtle.  It's simpler to just re-write it in a cleaner
way.  The issues here are:

1) If "idxd->max_wqs" is <= 0 then we call put_device(conf_dev) when
   "conf_dev" hasn't been initialized.
2) If kzalloc_node() fails then again "conf_dev" is invalid.  It's
   either uninitialized or it points to the "conf_dev" from the
   previous iteration so it leads to a double free.

It's better to free partial loop iterations within the loop and then
the unwinding at the end can handle whole loop iterations.  I also
renamed the labels to describe what the goto does and not where the goto
was located.

Fixes: 3fd2f4bc010c ("dmaengine: idxd: fix memory leak in error handling path of idxd_setup_wqs")
