net/mlx5e: fix double free of encap_header
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
[ Upstream commit 6f9b1a0 ]

When mlx5_packet_reformat_alloc() fails, the encap_header allocated in
mlx5e_tc_tun_create_header_ipv4{6} will be released within it. However,
e->encap_header is already set to the previously freed encap_header
before mlx5_packet_reformat_alloc(). As a result, the later
mlx5e_encap_put() will free e->encap_header again, causing a double free
issue.

mlx5e_encap_put()
    --> mlx5e_encap_dealloc()
        --> kfree(e->encap_header)

This happens when cmd: MLX5_CMD_OP_ALLOC_PACKET_REFORMAT_CONTEXT fail.

This patch fix it by not setting e->encap_header until
mlx5_packet_reformat_alloc() success.

Fixes: d589e78 ("net/mlx5e: Allow concurrent creation of encap entries")
