[PATCH net-next v2 5/6] net: devmem: resolve physical map_dev for leased RX bindings
From: Mina Almasry
Date: Sun Nov 08 2026 - 01:00:40 EST
Previously, netdev_nl_bind_rx_doit() passed netdev as both map_dev and
bind_dev to net_devmem_bind_dmabuf(), so leased RX bindings stored the
virtual netdev in binding->map_dev without tracking the physical backing
netdev at all. Unregistering the physical backing netdev while a leased
RX binding was active failed to detach and unmap the dmabuf.
Return the physical backing net_device from netdev_nl_get_dma_dev() when
the RX queue is leased from another netdev, lock map_dev around
net_devmem_bind_dmabuf() when map_dev != netdev (matching
netdev_nl_bind_tx_doit()), and assert in net_devmem_bind_dmabuf() that
both bind_dev and map_dev are locked.
Because a leased map_dev is reached via rxq->lease->dev and locked with
raw netdev_lock(map_dev) rather than netdev_get_by_index_lock(), it may
already have entered NETREG_UNREGISTERING and completed
net_devmem_dev_unregister(map_dev) before cascaded unregistration of
bind_dev tears down the lease. Reject binding in
net_devmem_bind_dmabuf() if map_dev->reg_state != NETREG_REGISTERED.
