Cited commit added 'DEVLINK_CMD_PARAM_DEL' notifications whenever the
network namespace of the devlink instance is changed. Specifically, the
notifications are generated after calling reload_down(), but before
calling reload_up(). At this stage, the data structures accessed while
reading the value of the "acl_region_rehash_interval" devlink parameter
are uninitialized, resulting in a use-after-free [1].
Fix by moving the registration and unregistration of the devlink
parameter to the TCAM code where it is actually used. This means that
the parameter is unregistered during reload_down() and then
re-registered during reload_up(), avoiding the use-after-free between
these two operations.
Reproducer:
# ip netns add test123
# devlink dev reload pci/0000:06:00.0 netns test123

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
