[PATCH net] net: mvpp2: prevent buffer overflow in page_pool allocation

From: Dmitriy Okunev <hidden>
Date: 2026-09-14 09:16:12
Also in: lkml
Subsystem: marvell mvpp2 ethernet driver, networking drivers, the rest · Maintainers: Marcin Wojtas, Russell King, Andrew Lunn, "David S. Miller", Eric Dumazet, Jakub Kicinski, Paolo Abeni, Linus Torvalds

The per‑processor buffering scheme is supported only if the
number of pools (nrxqs * 2) does not exceed MVPP2_BM_MAX_POOLS (8).
This is already checked in mvpp2_probe() during the initial
activation of percpu_pools.

However, mvpp2_change_mtu() may later call
mvpp2_bm_switch_buffers(priv, true) without this check, which can
lead to an out-of-bounds access in the priv->page_pool array in
mvpp2_bm_init(). The array is sized to hold MVPP2_PORT_MAX_RXQ
entries, and mvpp2_get_nrxqs() may return exactly that value. The
per-CPU scheme then doubles it to nrxqs * 2, exceeding the array
bounds.

Check that the hardware version is MVPP22 or newer and that the
number of pools (nrxqs * 2) does not exceed MVPP2_BM_MAX_POOLS
before switching to per-CPU mode.

Found by Linux Verification Center (linuxtesting.org) with SVACE.
