Subject: [PATCH 6.12.y] scsi: qla2xxx: Clamp max_npiv_vports to VP_CTRL bitmap capacity
Date: Fri, 11 Sep 2026 13:59:47 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260911175947.1288110-1-sashal@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <2026090902-nape-morphing-bd71@gregkh>
From: Nilesh Javali <njavali@marvell.com>
[ Upstream commit 2ac6a829843cf3df522d19e091276109b94c4c7a ]
ha->max_npiv_vports is taken from firmware (mcp->mb[11]) and only
constrained so that (max_npiv_vports + 1) is a multiple of
MIN_MULTI_ID_FABRIC, which permits values of 63, 127, 191 and 255.
NPIV vports are then allocated up to that count.
VP enable uses the VP_CONFIG IOCB, which addresses a vport through a
plain vp_index byte, so a vp_index beyond 128 is enabled without issue.
VP disable, however, uses the VP_CTRL IOCB, which selects target vports
through the fixed 128-bit vp_idx_map bitmap. qla24xx_control_vp()
rejects a vp_index past that bitmap and the IOCB builder cannot set a bit
beyond 127, yet qla24xx_vport_delete() frees the local state regardless.
A vport with vp_index > 128 can therefore be created and enabled but
never disabled, leaving it permanently active in firmware: a resource
leak.
Cap ha->max_npiv_vports at init to the vp_idx_map capacity so such
vports are never created. This collapses 191/255 to 127 (still
modulo-valid) and leaves the real-world 63/127 cases unaffected.
Fixes: 4d0ea24769c8 ("[SCSI] qla2xxx: Retrieve max-NPIV support capabilities from FW.")
