How to fix?

There is no fixed version for RHEL:8 kernel-doc.

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 RHEL. See How to fix? for RHEL:8 relevant fixed versions and status.

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

drm/amd/display: Wake DMCUB before executing GPINT commands

[Why] DMCUB can be in idle when we attempt to interface with the HW through the GPINT mailbox resulting in a system hang.

[How] Add dc_wake_and_execute_gpint() to wrap the wake, execute, sleep sequence.

If the GPINT executes successfully then DMCUB will be put back into sleep after the optional response is returned.

It functions similar to the inbox command interface.
