Notice that skb_mark_for_recycle() is introduced later than fixes tag in
6a5bcd84e886 ("page_pool: Allow drivers to hint on SKB recycling").

It is believed that fixes tag were missing a call to page_pool_release_page()
between v5.9 to v5.14, after which is should have used skb_mark_for_recycle().
Since v6.6 the call page_pool_release_page() were removed (in 535b9c61bdef
("net: page_pool: hide page_pool_release_page()") and remaining callers
converted (in commit 6bfef2ec0172 ("Merge branch
'net-page_pool-remove-page_pool_release_page'")).

This leak became visible in v6.8 via commit dba1b8a7ab68 ("mm/page_pool: catch
page_pool memory leaks").

Fixes: 6c5aa6fc4def ("xen networking: add basic XDP support for xen-netfront")

I have tested this patch on Xen 4.18.1 with VM (Arch Linux) kernel 6.9.0-rc1.

Without the patch there are many trace traces and cloning the Linux
mainline git repository resulted in failures (same with kernel 6.8.1).
The patched kernel 6.9.0-rc1 performs as expected; cloning the git
repository was successful and no kernel traces observed.
Hereby my tested by:

I don't see this patch yet in linux-next.

Any idea in which kernel release this patch will be included?

Hello,

Please could we request a CVE for "xen-netfront: Add missing
skb_mark_for_recycle" which is 037965402a010898d34f4e35327d22c0a95cd51f
in Linus' tree.

This is a kernel memory leak trigger-able from unprivileged userspace.

I can't see any evidence of this fix having been assigned a CVE thus far
on the linux-cve-annouce mailing list.

Thanks,

~Andrew
