RDMA/mlx5: Fix devx subscribe-event unwind NULL dereference

AI Analysis

No AI analysis yet.

Description

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: RDMA/mlx5: Fix devx subscribe-event unwind NULL dereference MLX5_IB_METHOD_DEVX_SUBSCRIBE_EVENT() links event_sub into sub_list before initializing the fields used by the shared error path. If eventfd_ctx_fdget() then fails, the unwind path dereferences event_sub->ev_file in uverbs_uobject_put() and calls subscribe_event_xa_dealloc() with an unset xa_key_level1. subscribe_event_xa_alloc() creates the XA entry exactly once for a given key_level1, on the first occurrence of that key. The unwind path must therefore call subscribe_event_xa_dealloc() exactly once for it as well. Enforce that by adding devx_key_in_sub_list() and calling subscribe_event_xa_dealloc() only when the last matching pending entry is being cleaned up.
