How to fix?

Upgrade SLES:15.4 kernel-64kb to version 5.14.21-150400.24.158.1 or higher.

NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream kernel-64kb package and not the kernel-64kb package as distributed by SLES. See How to fix? for SLES:15.4 relevant fixed versions and status.

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

IB/rdmavt: add lock to call to rvt_error_qp to prevent a race condition

The documentation of the function rvt_error_qp says both r_lock and s_lock need to be held when calling that function. It also asserts using lockdep that both of those locks are held. However, the commit I referenced in Fixes accidentally makes the call to rvt_error_qp in rvt_ruc_loopback no longer covered by r_lock. This results in the lockdep assertion failing and also possibly in a race condition.
