Descriptions

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: net:sfc: fix non-freed irq in legacy irq mode SFC driver can be configured via modparam to work using MSI-X, MSI or
legacy IRQ interrupts. In the last one, the interrupt was not properly
released on module remove. It was not freed because the flag irqs_hooked was not set during
initialization in the case of using legacy IRQ. Example of (trimmed) trace during module remove without this fix: remove_proc_entry: removing non-empty directory 'irq/125', leaking at least '0000:3b:00.1'

En el kernel de Linux, se resolvió la siguiente vulnerabilidad: net:sfc: corrige irq no liberado en modo irq heredado. El controlador SFC se puede configurar mediante modparam para que funcione usando interrupciones MSI-X, MSI o IRQ heredadas. En el último, la interrupción no se liberó correctamente al eliminar el módulo. No se liberó porque el indicador irqs_hooked no se estableció durante la inicialización en el caso de utilizar IRQ heredado. Ejemplo de seguimiento (recortado) durante la eliminación del módulo sin esta solución: remove_proc_entry: eliminando el directorio no vacío 'irq/125', filtrando al menos '0000:3b:00.1' ADVERTENCIA: CPU: 39 PID: 3658 en fs/proc/generic .c:715 remove_proc_entry+0x15c/0x170 ...recortado...
