Subject: [PATCH] net/tap: fix close for partially configured port
Date: Thu, 26 Mar 2026 13:46:11 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260326124612.2580985-1-david.marchand@redhat.com> (raw)
In case no rxq has been set up (like when starting testpmd with no mempool
drivers), a crash happens in tap_dev_close:
Thread 1 "dpdk-testpmd" received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.
0x00007ffff7fad68b in tap_dev_close (dev=dev@entry=0x4c4a80
<rte_eth_devices@INTERNAL>) at ../drivers/net/tap/rte_eth_tap.c:1111
1111 struct rx_queue *rxq = dev->data->rx_queues[i];
(gdb) p dev->data->rx_queues
$4 = (void **) 0x0
Fixes: 23e2387b49a1 ("net/tap: allocate queue structures dynamically")
