ASoC: fsl_xcvr: Revert fix missing lock in fsl_xcvr_mode_put()
This reverts commit f51424872760 ("ASoC: fsl_xcvr: fix missing lock in fsl_xcvr_mode_put()").
The original patch attempted to acquire the card->controls_rwsem lock in
fsl_xcvr_mode_put(). However, this function is called from the upper ALSA
core function snd_ctl_elem_write(), which already holds the write lock on
controls_rwsem for the whole put operation. So there is no need to simply
hold the lock for fsl_xcvr_activate_ctl() again.
Acquiring the read lock while holding the write lock in the same thread
results in a deadlock and a hung task, as reported by Alexander Stein. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
powerpc/eeh: fix recursive pci_lock_rescan_remove locking in EEH event handling
The recent commit 1010b4c012b0 ("powerpc/eeh: Make EEH driver device
hotplug safe") restructured the EEH driver to improve synchronization
with the PCI hotplug layer.
However, it inadvertently moved pci_lock_rescan_remove() outside its
intended scope in eeh_handle_normal_event(), leading to broken PCI
error reporting and improper EEH event triggering. Specifically,
eeh_handle_normal_event() acquired pci_lock_rescan_remove() before
calling eeh_pe_bus_get(), but eeh_pe_bus_get() itself attempts to
acquire the same lock internally, causing nested locking and disrupting
normal EEH event handling paths.
This patch adds a boolean parameter do_lock to _eeh_pe_bus_get(),
with two public wrappers:
eeh_pe_bus_get() with locking enabled.
eeh_pe_bus_get_nolock() that skips locking.
Callers that already hold pci_lock_rescan_remove() now use
eeh_pe_bus_get_nolock() to avoid recursive lock acquisition.
Additionally, pci_lock_rescan_remove() calls are restored to the correct
position—after eeh_pe_bus_get() and immediately before iterating affected
PEs and devices. This ensures EEH-triggered PCI removes occur under proper
bus rescan locking without recursive lock contention.
The eeh_pe_loc_get() function has been split into two functions:
eeh_pe_loc_get(struct eeh_pe *pe) which retrieves the loc for given PE.
eeh_pe_loc_get_bus(struct pci_bus *bus) which retrieves the location
code for given bus.
This resolves lockdep warnings such as:

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/mlx5: Fix deadlock between devlink lock and esw->wq
esw->work_queue executes esw_functions_changed_event_handler ->
esw_vfs_changed_event_handler and acquires the devlink lock.
.eswitch_mode_set (acquires devlink lock in devlink_nl_pre_doit) ->
mlx5_devlink_eswitch_mode_set -> mlx5_eswitch_disable_locked ->
mlx5_eswitch_event_handler_unregister -> flush_workqueue deadlocks
when esw_vfs_changed_event_handler executes.
Fix that by no longer flushing the work to avoid the deadlock, and using
a generation counter to keep track of work relevance. This avoids an old
handler manipulating an esw that has undergone one or more mode changes:
- the counter is incremented in mlx5_eswitch_event_handler_unregister.
- the counter is read and passed to the ephemeral mlx5_host_work struct.
- the work handler takes the devlink lock and bails out if the current
generation is different than the one it was scheduled to operate on.
- mlx5_eswitch_cleanup does the final draining before destroying the wq.
No longer flushing the workqueue has the side effect of maybe no longer
cancelling pending vport_change_handler work items, but that's ok since
those are disabled elsewhere:
- mlx5_eswitch_disable_locked disables the vport eq notifier.
- mlx5_esw_vport_disable disarms the HW EQ notification and marks
vport->enabled under state_lock to false to prevent pending vport
handler from doing anything.
- mlx5_eswitch_cleanup destroys the workqueue and makes sure all events
are disabled/finished. |

Revert "PCI/IOV: Add PCI rescan-remove locking when enabling/disabling SR-IOV"
This reverts commit 05703271c3cd ("PCI/IOV: Add PCI rescan-remove locking
when enabling/disabling SR-IOV"), which causes a deadlock by recursively
taking pci_rescan_remove_lock when sriov_del_vfs() is called as part of
pci_stop_and_remove_bus_device(). For example with the following sequence
of commands:
$ echo <NUM> > /sys/bus/pci/devices/<pf>/sriov_numvfs
$ echo 1 > /sys/bus/pci/devices/<pf>/remove

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
igb: remove napi_synchronize() in igb_down()
When an AF_XDP zero-copy application terminates abruptly (e.g., kill -9),
the XSK buffer pool is destroyed but NAPI polling continues.
igb_clean_rx_irq_zc() repeatedly returns the full budget, preventing
napi_complete_done() from clearing NAPI_STATE_SCHED.
igb_down() calls napi_synchronize() before napi_disable() for each queue
vector. napi_synchronize() spins waiting for NAPI_STATE_SCHED to clear,
which never happens. igb_down() blocks indefinitely, the TX watchdog
fires, and the TX queue remains permanently stalled.
napi_disable() already handles this correctly: it sets NAPI_STATE_DISABLE.
After a full-budget poll, __napi_poll() checks napi_disable_pending(). If
set, it forces completion and clears NAPI_STATE_SCHED, breaking the loop
that napi_synchronize() cannot.
napi_synchronize() was added in commit 41f149a285da ("igb: Fix possible
panic caused by Rx traffic arrival while interface is down").
napi_disable() provides stronger guarantees: it prevents further
scheduling and waits for any active poll to exit.
Other Intel drivers (ixgbe, ice, i40e) use napi_disable() without a
preceding napi_synchronize() in their down paths.
Remove redundant napi_synchronize() call and reorder napi_disable()
before igb_set_queue_napi() so the queue-to-NAPI mapping is only
cleared after polling has fully stopped. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
idpf: fix PREEMPT_RT raw/bh spinlock nesting for async VC handling
Switch from using the completion's raw spinlock to a local lock in the
idpf_vc_xn struct. The conversion is safe because complete/_all() are
called outside the lock and there is no reason to share the completion
lock in the current logic. This avoids invalid wait context reported by
the kernel due to the async handler taking BH spinlock:

| ASP.NET Core and Visual Studio Denial of Service Vulnerability |
| A vulnerability in the Common Open Policy Service (COPS) of Cisco IOS XE Software for Cisco cBR-8 Converged Broadband Routers could allow an unauthenticated, remote attacker to cause resource exhaustion, resulting in a denial of service (DoS) condition. This vulnerability is due to a deadlock condition in the code when processing COPS packets under certain conditions. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by sending COPS packets with high burst rates to an affected device. A successful exploit could allow the attacker to cause the CPU to consume excessive resources, which prevents other control plane processes from obtaining resources and results in a DoS. |
