Commit [1] introduces dp->reo_cmd_update_rx_queue_list for the purpose of tracking all pending REO queue flush commands. The helper ath12k_dp_prepare_reo_update_elem() allocates an element and populates it with REO queue information, then add it to the list. The element would be helpful during clean up stage to finally unmap/free the corresponding REO queue buffer. In MLO scenarios with more than one links, for non dp_primary_link_only chips like WCN7850, that helper is called for each link peer. This results in multiple elements added to the list but all of them pointing to the same REO queue buffer. Consequently the same buffer gets unmap/freed multiple times: BUG kmalloc-2k (Tainted: G B W O ): Object already free ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Allocated in ath12k_wifi7_dp_rx_assign_reoq+0xce/0x280 [ath12k_wifi7] age=7436 cpu=10 pid=16130 __kmalloc_noprof ath12k_wifi7_dp_rx_assign_reoq ath12k_dp_rx_peer_tid_setup ath12k_dp_peer_setup ath12k_mac_station_add ath12k_mac_op_sta_state [...] Freed in ath12k_dp_rx_tid_cleanup.part.0+0x25/0x40 [ath12k] age=1 cpu=27 pid=16137 kfree ath12k_dp_rx_tid_cleanup.part.0 ath12k_dp_rx_reo_cmd_list_cleanup ath12k_dp_cmn_device_deinit ath12k_core_stop ath12k_core_hw_group_cleanup ath12k_pci_remove Fix this by allowing list addition for primary link only. Note dp_primary_link_only chips like QCN9274 are not affected by this change, because that's what they were doing in the first place.
