igb: Fix use-after-free error during reset
[ Upstream commit 7b29260 ] Cleans the next descriptor to watch (next_to_watch) when cleaning the TX ring. Failure to do so can cause invalid memory accesses. If igb_poll() runs while the controller is reset this can lead to the driver try to free a skb that was already freed. (The crash is harder to reproduce with the igb driver, but the same potential problem exists as the code is identical to igc) Fixes: 7cc6fd4 ("igb: Don't bother clearing Tx buffer_info in igb_clean_tx_ring") Signed-off-by: Vinicius Costa Gomes <vinicius.gomes@intel.com> Reported-by: Erez Geva <erez.geva.ext@siemens.com> Tested-by: Tony Brelinski <tonyx.brelinski@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Tony Nguyen <anthony.l.nguyen@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Sasha Levin <sashal@kernel.org>
