Subject: [PATCH net v5 1/2] bonding: fix null-ptr-deref in bond_rr_gen_slave_id()
Date: Mon, 9 Mar 2026 11:06:58 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260309030702.128520-2-jiayuan.chen@linux.dev> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260309030702.128520-1-jiayuan.chen@linux.dev>
From: Jiayuan Chen <jiayuan.chen@shopee.com>
bond_rr_gen_slave_id() dereferences bond->rr_tx_counter without a NULL
check. rr_tx_counter is a per-CPU counter only allocated in bond_open()
when the bond mode is round-robin. If the bond device was never brought
up, rr_tx_counter remains NULL, causing a null-ptr-deref.
The XDP redirect path can reach this code even when the bond is not up:
bpf_master_redirect_enabled_key is a global static key, so when any bond
device has native XDP attached, the XDP_TX -> xdp_master_redirect()
interception is enabled for all bond slaves system-wide. This allows the
path xdp_master_redirect() -> bond_xdp_get_xmit_slave() ->
bond_xdp_xmit_roundrobin_slave_get() -> bond_rr_gen_slave_id() to be
reached on a bond that was never opened.
Fix this by adding a NULL check with unlikely() in bond_rr_gen_slave_id()
before dereferencing rr_tx_counter. When rr_tx_counter is NULL (bond was
never opened), fall back to get_random_u32() for slave selection. The
allocation in bond_open() is kept, with WRITE_ONCE() added to safely
publish the pointer to the XDP read side. A plain read suffices for the
!bond->rr_tx_counter guard in bond_open() itself, as bond_open() runs
under RTNL lock and is the only writer of rr_tx_counter.
Fixes: 879af96ffd72 ("net, core: Add support for XDP redirection to slave device")
