Subject: [PATCH] rtase: fix double free of multi-frag skb on DMA map failure
Date: Tue, 21 Jul 2026 10:38:36 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260721023836.6691-1-luyun_611@163.com> (raw)
From: Yun Lu <luyun@kylinos.cn>
In rtase_start_xmit(), when the head buffer DMA mapping fails after
rtase_xmit_frags() has mapped all fragments, the error path clears
the fragment descriptors with rtase_tx_clear_range(), which frees
the skb through the last-frag slot and accounts tx_dropped. Control
then falls through to the common error label, which frees the same
skb a second time and counts it again.
Return right after clearing the fragments when the skb owns frags;
the no-frag case still drops through and frees the head skb once.
Fixes: d6e882b89fdf ("rtase: Implement .ndo_start_xmit function")
