[PATCH v4] sfc: potential dereference null pointer of rx_queue->page_ring

From: Jiasheng Jiang <hidden>
Date: 2021-12-20 02:37:46
Also in: bpf, lkml
Subsystem: networking drivers, sfc network driver, the rest · Maintainers: Andrew Lunn, "David S. Miller", Eric Dumazet, Jakub Kicinski, Paolo Abeni, Edward Cree, Linus Torvalds

The return value of kcalloc() needs to be checked.
To avoid dereference of null pointer in case of the failure of alloc,
such as efx_fini_rx_recycle_ring().
Therefore, it should be better to change the definition of page_ptr_mask
to signed int and then assign the page_ptr_mask to -1 when page_ring is
NULL, in order to avoid the use in the loop.

Fixes: 5a6681e22c14 ("sfc: separate out SFC4000 ("Falcon") support into new sfc-falcon driver")
Signed-off-by: Jiasheng Jiang <redacted>

Changelog:

v3 -> v4

*Change 1. Casade return -ENOMEM when alloc fails and deal with the
error.
*Change 2. Set size to -1 instead of return error.
*Change 3. Change the Fixes tag.
