How to fix?

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

NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream kernel-rt-kvm package and not the kernel-rt-kvm 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:

dm rq: don't queue request to blk-mq during DM suspend

DM uses blk-mq's quiesce/unquiesce to stop/start device mapper queue.

But blk-mq's unquiesce may come from outside events, such as elevator switch, updating nr_requests or others, and request may come during suspend, so simply ask for blk-mq to requeue it.

Fixes one kernel panic issue when running updating nr_requests and dm-mpath suspend/resume stress test.
