Subject: [PATCH net 2/2] bnxt_en: Fix the 'Invalid VF' id check in bnxt_vf_ndo_prep routine.
Date: Thu,  4 Jan 2018 18:46:55 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1515109615-22695-3-git-send-email-michael.chan@broadcom.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1515109615-22695-1-git-send-email-michael.chan@broadcom.com>

From: Venkat Duvvuru <venkatkumar.duvvuru@broadcom.com>

In bnxt_vf_ndo_prep (which is called by bnxt_get_vf_config ndo), there is a
check for "Invalid VF id". Currently, the check is done against max_vfs.
However, the user doesn't always create max_vfs. So, the check should be
against the created number of VFs. The number of bnxt_vf_info structures
that are allocated in bnxt_alloc_vf_resources routine is the "number of
requested VFs". So, if an "invalid VF id" falls between the requested
number of VFs and the max_vfs, the driver will be dereferencing an invalid
pointer.

Fixes: c0c050c58d84 ("bnxt_en: New Broadcom ethernet driver.")
