Subject: [PATCH net v6] usbnet: fix smp_processor_id() use in preemptible context
Date: Mon, 5 Oct 2026 00:59:25 +0300 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261004215937.302247-1-omermetekaya0@gmail.com> (raw)
tx_complete() calls this_cpu_ptr() before disabling preemption, which
triggers a BUG when running with CONFIG_DEBUG_PREEMPT:
BUG: using smp_processor_id() in preemptible code in tx_complete
Fix by using get_cpu_ptr()/put_cpu_ptr() which disable preemption and
return the per-CPU pointer atomically. The usbnet_skb_return() hunk
is a hardening change: that path runs in softirq context so no warning
fires there, but the same fix is applied for consistency.
Fixes: ed194d136769 ("usb: core: remove local_irq_save() around ->complete() handler")
Suggested-by: David Laight <david.laight.linux@gmail.com>
Reported-by: syzbot+04cd90bb99c6ef81a65d@syzkaller.appspotmail.com
Closes: https://syzkaller.appspot.com/bug?extid=04cd90bb99c6ef81a65d

v6: Fix commit message and Fixes tag as pointed out by Sashiko:
- BUG is in tx_complete(), not usbnet_skb_return()
- usbnet_skb_return() hunk is hardening, not a fix
- CONFIG_DEBUG_PREEMPT, not PREEMPT_FULL
- Fixes tag updated to ed194d136769
