Hence, modules cannot\nuse symbols annotated __init. The access to a freed symbol may end up\nwith kernel panic.\n\nmodpost used to detect it, but it has been broken for a decade.\n\nRecently, I fixed modpost so it started to warn it again, then this\nshowed up in linux-next builds.\n\nThere are two ways to fix it:\n\n  - Remove __init\n  - Remove EXPORT_SYMBOL\n\nI chose the latter for this case because the only in-tree call-site,\narch/x86/kernel/cpu/mshyperv.c is never compiled as modular.\n(CONFIG_HYPERVISOR_GUEST is boolean)"}],"affected":[{"product":"Linux","vendor":"Linux","defaultStatus":"unaffected","repo":"https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git","programFiles":["drivers/clocksource/hyperv_timer.c"],"versions":[{"version":"dd2cb348613b44f9d948b068775e159aad298599","lessThan":"cff3a7ce6e81418b6e8bac941779bbf5d342d626","status":"affected","versionType":"git"},{"version":"dd2cb348613b44f9d948b068775e159aad298599","lessThan":"db965e2757d95f695e606856418cd84003dd036d","status":"affected","versionType":"git"},{"version":"dd2cb348613b44f9d948b068775e159aad298599","lessThan":"0414eab7c78f3518143d383e448d44fc573ac6d2","status":"affected","versionType":"git"},{"version":"dd2cb348613b44f9d948b068775e159aad298599","lessThan":"937fcbb55a1e48a6422e87e8f49422c92265f102","status":"affected","versionType":"git"},{"version":"dd2cb348613b44f9d948b068775e159aad298599","lessThan":"245b993d8f6c4e25f19191edfbd8080b645e12b1","status":"affected","versionType":"git"}]},{"product":"Linux","vendor":"Linux","defaultStatus":"affected","repo":"https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git","programFiles":["drivers/clocksource/hyperv_timer.c"],"versions":[{"version":"5.3","status":"affected"},{"version":"0","lessThan":"5.3","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"5.4.200","lessThanOrEqual":"5.4.*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"5.10.124","lessThanOrEqual":"5.10.*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"5.15.49","lessThanOrEqual":"5.15.*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"5.18.6","lessThanOrEqual":"5.18.*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"5.19","lessThanOrEqual":"*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"original_commit_for_fix"}]}],"cpeApplicability":[{"nodes":[{"operator":"OR","negate":false,"cpeMatch":[{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"5.3","versionEndExcluding":"5.4.200"},{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"5.3","versionEndExcluding":"5.10.124"},{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"5.3","versionEndExcluding":"5.15.49"},{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"5.3","versionEndExcluding":"5.18.6"},{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"5.3","versionEndExcluding":"5.19"}]}]}],"references":[{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/cff3a7ce6e81418b6e8bac941779bbf5d342d626"},{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/db965e2757d95f695e606856418cd84003dd036d"},{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/0414eab7c78f3518143d383e448d44fc573ac6d2"},{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/937fcbb55a1e48a6422e87e8f49422c92265f102"},{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/245b993d8f6c4e25f19191edfbd8080b645e12b1"}],"title":"clocksource: hyper-v: unexport __init-annotated hv_init_clocksource()","x_generator":{"engine":"bippy-1.2.0"}}}}
