CWEhttps://cwe.mitre.org/data/definitions/667.html

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

net/mlx5: Fix lockdep assertion on sync reset unload event

Fix lockdep assertion triggered during sync reset unload event. When the sync reset flow is initiated using the devlink reload fw_activate option, the PF already holds the devlink lock while handling unload event. In this case, delegate sync reset unload event handling back to the devlink callback process to avoid double-locking and resolve the lockdep warning.

Kernel log: WARNING: CPU: 9 PID: 1578 at devl_assert_locked+0x31/0x40 […] Call Trace: mlx5_unload_one_devl_locked+0x2c/0xc0 [mlx5_core] mlx5_sync_reset_unload_event+0xaf/0x2f0 [mlx5_core] process_one_work+0x222/0x640 worker_thread+0x199/0x350 kthread+0x10b/0x230 ? __pfx_worker_thread+0x10/0x10 ? __pfx_kthread+0x10/0x10 ret_from_fork+0x8e/0x100 ? __pfx_kthread+0x10/0x10 ret_from_fork_asm+0x1a/0x30

Weakness

The product does not properly acquire or release a lock on a resource, leading to unexpected resource state changes and behaviors.

Extended Description

Locking is a type of synchronization behavior that ensures that multiple independently-operating processes or threads do not interfere with each other when accessing the same resource. All processes/threads are expected to follow the same steps for locking. If these steps are not followed precisely - or if no locking is done at all - then another process/thread could modify the shared resource in a way that is not visible or predictable to the original process. This can lead to data or memory corruption, denial of service, etc.
