Subject: [PATCH net-next] net: set initial device refcount to 1
Date: Mon, 22 Mar 2021 11:21:45 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20210322182145.531377-1-eric.dumazet@gmail.com> (raw)
From: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com>
When adding CONFIG_PCPU_DEV_REFCNT, I forgot that the
initial net device refcount was 0.
When CONFIG_PCPU_DEV_REFCNT is not set, this means
the first dev_hold() triggers an illegal refcount
operation (addition on 0)
refcount_t: addition on 0; use-after-free.
WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 1 at lib/refcount.c:25 refcount_warn_saturate+0x128/0x1a4
Fix is to change initial (and final) refcount to be 1.
Also add a missing kerneldoc piece, as reported by
Stephen Rothwell.
Fixes: 919067cc845f ("net: add CONFIG_PCPU_DEV_REFCNT")
