Subject: [PATCH net v3 4/5] ice: rebuild ring stats arrays instead of reallocating them in place
Date: Fri, 11 Sep 2026 13:26:19 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260911113848.44086-5-przemyslaw.kitszel@intel.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260911113848.44086-1-przemyslaw.kitszel@intel.com>
ice_vsi_realloc_stat_arrays() resized the ring stats arrays in place
with krealloc_array(), sizing them from vsi->req_txq/req_rxq. That is
not what ice_vsi_set_num_qs() computes later in ice_vsi_cfg_def(), so
after a rebuild the arrays could end up shorter than vsi->alloc_txq /
vsi->alloc_rxq, and ice_vsi_alloc_ring_stats() then walked past their
end. Requesting fewer queues than the PF pool can hand out was enough
to trigger it.
Replace it with ice_vsi_resize_stat_arrays(), which allocates a fresh
struct ice_vsi_stats instead, sized with ice_vsi_get_num_qs() and the
queues ice_vsi_decfg() is about to return to the PF pool, which is
exactly what ice_vsi_set_num_qs() will compute once they are back
there. Copy the surviving entry pointers over and install the new
structure, all before ice_vsi_decfg() runs. The entries that did not
fit are freed together with the old container, via
__ice_vsi_free_stats() with @free_entries set to false.
Doing the allocation up front also means the failure path is a plain
unlock and return, with the VSI still fully configured, rather than a
half-torn-down VSI to unwind.
While at it, skip the stats handling for ICE_VSI_CHNL, which has no
entry in pf->vsi_stats[] to begin with.

this is an actual fix/improvement, that removes some of the tech debt,
but there is no Fixes tag, as this was not directly caused by an user
observable bug, rather as a pre-work / ai-review resolution for the next
commit
