Subject: [PATCH RESEND wireless 06/10] wifi: mac80211: don't access the TSF of a down interface
Date: Tue, 8 Sep 2026 14:28:17 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260908122838.201719-18-johannes@sipsolutions.net> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260908122838.201719-12-johannes@sipsolutions.net>
From: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>
The tsf debugfs files call the driver even if the interface
isn't up, tgriggering check-sdata-in-driver warnings.
Reject the access in that case.
Assisted-by: LLM
Fixes: 37a41b4affa3 ("mac80211: add ieee80211_vif param to tsf functions")
Reported-by: syzbot+1c8c45017f784e646b47@syzkaller.appspotmail.com
Closes: https://syzkaller.appspot.com/bug?extid=1c8c45017f784e646b47
