CVE-2025-40347

NameCVE-2025-40347
DescriptionIn the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: net: enetc: fix the deadlock of enetc_mdio_lock After applying the workaround for err050089, the LS1028A platform experiences RCU stalls on RT kernel. This issue is caused by the recursive acquisition of the read lock enetc_mdio_lock. Here list some of the call stacks identified under the enetc_poll path that may lead to a deadlock: enetc_poll -> enetc_lock_mdio -> enetc_clean_rx_ring OR napi_complete_done -> napi_gro_receive -> enetc_start_xmit -> enetc_lock_mdio -> enetc_map_tx_buffs -> enetc_unlock_mdio -> enetc_unlock_mdio After enetc_poll acquires the read lock, a higher-priority writer attempts to acquire the lock, causing preemption. The writer detects that a read lock is already held and is scheduled out. However, readers under enetc_poll cannot acquire the read lock again because a writer is already waiting, leading to a thread hang. Currently, the deadlock is avoided by adjusting enetc_lock_mdio to prevent recursive lock acquisition.
