Subject: [PATCH net 1/4] ixgbe: fix memory leaks in the ixgbe_recovery_probe() path
Date: Tue, 27 Jan 2026 14:30:42 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260127223047.3979404-2-anthony.l.nguyen@intel.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260127223047.3979404-1-anthony.l.nguyen@intel.com>

From: Kohei Enju <enjuk@amazon.com>

When ixgbe_recovery_probe() is invoked and this function fails,
allocated resources in advance are not completely freed, because
ixgbe_probe() returns ixgbe_recovery_probe() directly and
ixgbe_recovery_probe() only frees partial resources, resulting in memory
leaks including:
- adapter->io_addr
- adapter->jump_tables[0]
- adapter->mac_table
- adapter->rss_key
- adapter->af_xdp_zc_qps

The leaked MMIO region can be observed in /proc/vmallocinfo, and the
remaining leaks are reported by kmemleak.

Don't return ixgbe_recovery_probe() directly, and instead let
ixgbe_probe() to clean up resources on failures.

Fixes: 29cb3b8d95c7 ("ixgbe: add E610 implementation of FW recovery mode")
