Subject: [PATCH bpf] xsk: fix incorrect netdev reference count
Date: Fri, 20 Nov 2020 16:14:43 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20201120151443.105903-1-marekx.majtyka@intel.com> (raw)

From: Marek Majtyka <marekx.majtyka@intel.com>

Fix incorrect netdev reference count in xsk_bind operation. Incorrect
reference count of the device appears when a user calls bind with the
XDP_ZEROCOPY flag on an interface which does not support zero-copy.
In such a case, an error is returned but the reference count is not
decreased. This change fixes the fault, by decreasing the reference count
in case of such an error.

The problem being corrected appeared in '162c820ed896' for the first time,
and the code was moved to new file location over the time with commit
'c2d3d6a47462'. This specific patch applies to all version starting
from 'c2d3d6a47462'. The same solution should be applied but on different
file (net/xdp/xdp_umem.c) and function (xdp_umem_assign_dev) for versions
from '162c820ed896' to 'c2d3d6a47462' excluded.

Fixes: 162c820ed896 ("xdp: hold device for umem regardless of zero- ...")
