If set, csdlock_debug()\ninvokes static_branch_enable() to enable csd_lock_wait feature, which\ntriggers a panic on arm64 for kernels built with CONFIG_SPARSEMEM=y and\nCONFIG_SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP=n.\n\nWith CONFIG_SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP=n, __nr_to_section is called in\nstatic_key_enable() and returns NULL, resulting in a NULL dereference\nbecause mem_section is initialized only later in sparse_init().\n\nThis is also a problem for powerpc because early_param() functions\nare invoked earlier than jump_label_init(), also resulting in\nstatic_key_enable() failures.  These failures cause the warning \"static\nkey 'xxx' used before call to jump_label_init()\".\n\nThus, early_param is too early for csd_lock_wait to run\nstatic_branch_enable(), so changes it to __setup to fix these."}],"affected":[{"product":"Linux","vendor":"Linux","defaultStatus":"unaffected","repo":"https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git","programFiles":["kernel/smp.c"],"versions":[{"version":"8d0968cc6b8ffd8496c2ebffdfdc801f949a85e5","lessThan":"d2cbdbe22b5f190055d2d0ae92e7454479343a30","status":"affected","versionType":"git"},{"version":"8d0968cc6b8ffd8496c2ebffdfdc801f949a85e5","lessThan":"05de9e2e33b1625c71aee69e353fe906dd2be88a","status":"affected","versionType":"git"},{"version":"8d0968cc6b8ffd8496c2ebffdfdc801f949a85e5","lessThan":"b480d1e9a8c11ecc1c99dc01814b28e3103bd0a0","status":"affected","versionType":"git"},{"version":"8d0968cc6b8ffd8496c2ebffdfdc801f949a85e5","lessThan":"9c9b26b0df270d4f9246e483a44686fca951a29c","status":"affected","versionType":"git"}]},{"product":"Linux","vendor":"Linux","defaultStatus":"affected","repo":"https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git","programFiles":["kernel/smp.c"],"versions":[{"version":"5.13","status":"affected"},{"version":"0","lessThan":"5.13","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"5.15.61","lessThanOrEqual":"5.15.*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"5.18.18","lessThanOrEqual":"5.18.*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"5.19.2","lessThanOrEqual":"5.19.*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"6.0","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":"5.13","versionEndExcluding":"5.15.61"},{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"5.13","versionEndExcluding":"5.18.18"},{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"5.13","versionEndExcluding":"5.19.2"},{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"5.13","versionEndExcluding":"6.0"}]}]}],"references":[{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/d2cbdbe22b5f190055d2d0ae92e7454479343a30"},{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/05de9e2e33b1625c71aee69e353fe906dd2be88a"},{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/b480d1e9a8c11ecc1c99dc01814b28e3103bd0a0"},{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/9c9b26b0df270d4f9246e483a44686fca951a29c"}],"title":"locking/csd_lock: Change csdlock_debug from early_param to __setup","x_generator":{"engine":"bippy-1.2.0"}}}}
