NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream linux-virt package and not the linux-virt package as distributed by Minimos. See How to fix? for Minimos:latest relevant fixed versions and status.

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

accel/ivpu: Fix deadlock in ivpu_ms_cleanup()

Fix deadlock in ivpu_ms_cleanup() by preventing runtime resume after file_priv->ms_lock is acquired.

During a failure in runtime resume, a cold boot is executed, which calls ivpu_ms_cleanup_all(). This function calls ivpu_ms_cleanup() that acquires file_priv->ms_lock and causes the deadlock.
