Descriptions

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

Reapply "drm/qxl: simplify qxl_fence_wait"

This reverts commit 07ed11afb68d94eadd4ffc082b97c2331307c5ea.

Stephen Rostedt reports:
"I went to run my tests on my VMs and the tests hung on boot up.
Unfortunately, the most I ever got out was:

[ 93.607888] Testing event system initcall: OK
[ 93.667730] Running tests on all trace events:
[ 93.669757] Testing all events: OK
[ 95.631064] ------------[ cut here ]------------
Timed out after 60 seconds"

and further debugging points to a possible circular locking dependency
between the console_owner locking and the worker pool locking.

Reverting the commit allows Steve's VM to boot to completion again.

[ This may obviously result in the "[TTM] Buffer eviction failed"
messages again, which was the reason for that original revert. But at
this point this seems preferable to a non-booting system... ]

En el kernel de Linux, se resolvió la siguiente vulnerabilidad: Vuelva a aplicar "drm/qxl: simplificar qxl_fence_wait" Esto revierte el commit 07ed11afb68d94eadd4ffc082b97c2331307c5ea. Stephen Rostedt informa: "Fui a ejecutar mis pruebas en mis máquinas virtuales y las pruebas se colgaron al arrancar. Desafortunadamente, lo máximo que obtuve fue: [ 93.607888] Probando evento de initcall del sistema: OK [ 93.667730] Ejecutando pruebas en todos los eventos de seguimiento : [93.669757] Probando todos los eventos: OK [95.631064] ------------[ cortar aquí ]------------ Se agotó el tiempo de espera después de 60 segundos" y más puntos de depuración a una posible dependencia de bloqueo circular entre el bloqueo del propietario de la consola y el bloqueo del grupo de trabajadores. Revertir el commit permite que la máquina virtual de Steve se inicie nuevamente. [Obviamente, esto puede provocar que aparezcan nuevamente los mensajes "[TTM] Error en el desalojo del búfer", que fue el motivo de la reversión original. Pero en este punto esto parece preferible a un sistema sin arranque...]
