CVE-2025-38009

Description

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:wifi: mt76: disable napi on driver removalA warning on driver removal started occurring after commit 9dd05df8403b("net: warn if NAPI instance wasn't shut down"). Disable tx napi beforedeleting it in mt76_dma_cleanup(). WARNING: CPU: 4 PID: 18828 at net/core/dev.c:7288 __netif_napi_del_locked+0xf0/0x100 CPU: 4 UID: 0 PID: 18828 Comm: modprobe Not tainted 6.15.0-rc4 #4 PREEMPT(lazy) Hardware name: ASUS System Product Name/PRIME X670E-PRO WIFI, BIOS 3035 09/05/2024 RIP: 0010:__netif_napi_del_locked+0xf0/0x100 Call Trace: mt76_dma_cleanup+0x54/0x2f0 [mt76] mt7921_pci_remove+0xd5/0x190 [mt7921e] pci_device_remove+0x47/0xc0 device_release_driver_internal+0x19e/0x200 driver_detach+0x48/0x90 bus_remove_driver+0x6d/0xf0 pci_unregister_driver+0x2e/0xb0 __do_sys_delete_module.isra.0+0x197/0x2e0 do_syscall_64+0x7b/0x160 entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x76/0x7eTested with mt7921e but the same pattern can be actually applied to othermt76 drivers calling mt76_dma_cleanup() during removal. Tx napi is enabledin their *_dma_init() functions and only toggled off and on again insidetheir suspend/resume/reset paths. So it should be okay to disable txnapi in such a generic way.Found by Linux Verification Center (linuxtesting.org).
