From CVE.org
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ath11k: pci: fix crash on suspend if board file is not found Mario reported that the kernel was crashing on suspend if ath11k was not able to find a board file: [ 473.693286] PM: Suspending system (s2idle) [ 473.693291] printk: Suspending console(s) (use no_console_suspend to debug) [ 474.407787] BUG: unable to handle page fault for address: 0000000000002070 [ 474.407791] #PF: supervisor read access in kernel mode [ 474.407794] #PF: error_code(0x0000) - not-present page [ 474.407798] PGD 0 P4D 0 [ 474.407801] Oops: 0000 [#1] PREEMPT SMP NOPTI [ 474.407805] CPU: 2 PID: 2350 Comm: kworker/u32:14 Tainted: G W 5.16.0 #248 [...] [ 474.407868] Call Trace: [ 474.407870] <TASK> [ 474.407874] ? _raw_spin_lock_irqsave+0x2a/0x60 [ 474.407882] ? lock_timer_base+0x72/0xa0 [ 474.407889] ? _raw_spin_unlock_irqrestore+0x29/0x3d [ 474.407892] ? try_to_del_timer_sync+0x54/0x80 [ 474.407896] ath11k_dp_rx_pktlog_stop+0x49/0xc0 [ath11k] [ 474.407912] ath11k_core_suspend+0x34/0x130 [ath11k] [ 474.407923] ath11k_pci_pm_suspend+0x1b/0x50 [ath11k_pci] [ 474.407928] pci_pm_suspend+0x7e/0x170 [ 474.407935] ? pci_pm_freeze+0xc0/0xc0 [ 474.407939] dpm_run_callback+0x4e/0x150 [ 474.407947] __device_suspend+0x148/0x4c0 [ 474.407951] async_suspend+0x20/0x90 dmesg-efi-164255130401001: Oops#1 Part1 [ 474.407955] async_run_entry_fn+0x33/0x120 [ 474.407959] process_one_work+0x220/0x3f0 [ 474.407966] worker_thread+0x4a/0x3d0 [ 474.407971] kthread+0x17a/0x1a0 [ 474.407975] ? process_one_work+0x3f0/0x3f0 [ 474.407979] ? set_kthread_struct+0x40/0x40 [ 474.407983] ret_from_fork+0x22/0x30 [ 474.407991] </TASK> The issue here is that board file loading happens after ath11k_pci_probe() succesfully returns (ath11k initialisation happends asynchronously) and the suspend handler is still enabled, of course failing as ath11k is not properly initialised. Fix this by checking ATH11K_FLAG_QMI_FAIL during both suspend and resume. Tested-on: WCN6855 hw2.0 PCI WLAN.HSP.1.1-03003-QCAHSPSWPL_V1_V2_SILICONZ_LITE-2
Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) Score Details
Info alert:Important note
CVSS scores for open source components depend on vendor-specific factors (e.g. version or build chain). Therefore, Red Hat's score and impact rating can be different from NVD and other vendors. Red Hat remains the authoritative CVE Naming Authority (CNA) source for its products and services (see Red Hat classifications).
The following CVSS metrics and score provided are preliminary and subject to review.
