Subject: [PATCH 5.15.y 2/2] can: esd_usb: kill anchored URBs before freeing netdevs
Date: Mon, 27 Jul 2026 09:13:14 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260727131314.399083-2-sashal@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260727131314.399083-1-sashal@kernel.org>

From: Fan Wu <fanwu01@zju.edu.cn>

[ Upstream commit c43122fef328a70045fe7621c06de6b2b8e19264 ]

esd_usb_disconnect() frees each CAN netdev with free_candev() inside
its per-netdev loop and only calls unlink_all_urbs(dev) afterwards.
The per-netdev private data (struct esd_usb_net_priv) is embedded in
the net_device allocation returned by alloc_candev(), so once
free_candev() has run, dev->nets[i] points to freed memory.
unlink_all_urbs() then dereferences the freed dev->nets[i] to kill the
per-netdev TX anchor (usb_kill_anchored_urbs(&priv->tx_submitted)),
clear active_tx_jobs, and reset priv->tx_contexts[].

Reorder the teardown so the anchored URBs are killed before the netdevs
are freed, matching other CAN/USB drivers in the same directory such as
ems_usb, usb_8dev and mcba_usb, which unregister, then unlink, then
free: unregister the netdevs first (which stops their TX queues), call
unlink_all_urbs(dev) once, then free the netdevs.

This issue was found by an in-house static analysis tool.
