NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream kernel-doc package and not the kernel-doc package as distributed by Centos. See How to fix? for Centos:8 relevant fixed versions and status.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

drm/amdgpu: Forward soft recovery errors to userspace

As we discussed before[1], soft recovery should be forwarded to userspace, or we can get into a really bad state where apps will keep submitting hanging command buffers cascading us to a hard reset.
