As a result, the system tries to lock the mutex whole holding\nthe spinlock.\n\nIt seems, the internal regmap locks are not needed in this driver at all.\nmcp->lock seems to protect the regmap from concurrent accesses already,\nexcept, probably, in mcp_pinconf_get/set.\n\nmcp23s08_irq_set_type() and mcp23s08_irq_mask/unmask() are called under\nchip_bus_lock(), which calls mcp23s08_irq_bus_lock(). The latter takes\nmcp->lock and enables regmap caching, so that the potentially slow I2C\naccesses are deferred until chip_bus_unlock().\n\nThe accesses to the regmap from mcp23s08_probe_one() do not need additional\nlocking.\n\nIn all remaining places where the regmap is accessed, except\nmcp_pinconf_get/set(), the driver already takes mcp->lock.\n\nThis patch adds locking in mcp_pinconf_get/set() and disables internal\nlocking in the regmap config. Among other things, it fixes the sleeping\nin atomic context described above." } ], "affected": [ { "product": "Linux", "vendor": "Linux", "defaultStatus": "unaffected", "repo": "https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git", "programFiles": [ "drivers/pinctrl/pinctrl-mcp23s08.c" ], "versions": [ { "version": "8f38910ba4f662222157ce07a0d5becc4328c46a", "lessThan": "788d9e9a41b81893d6bb8faa05f045c975278318", "status": "affected", "versionType": "git" }, { "version": "8f38910ba4f662222157ce07a0d5becc4328c46a", "lessThan": "c55d186376a87b468c9ee30f2195e0f3857f61a0", "status": "affected", "versionType": "git" }, { "version": "8f38910ba4f662222157ce07a0d5becc4328c46a", "lessThan": "9372e160d8211a7e17f2abff8370794f182df785", "status": "affected", "versionType": "git" }, { "version": "8f38910ba4f662222157ce07a0d5becc4328c46a", "lessThan": "0310cbad163a908d09d99c26827859365cd71fcb", "status": "affected", "versionType": "git" }, { "version": "8f38910ba4f662222157ce07a0d5becc4328c46a", "lessThan": "8c6fd5803b988a5e78c9b9e42c70a936d7cfc6ec", "status": "affected", "versionType": "git" }, { "version": "8f38910ba4f662222157ce07a0d5becc4328c46a", "lessThan": "830f838589522404cd7c2f0f540602f25034af61", "status": "affected", "versionType": "git" }, { "version": "8f38910ba4f662222157ce07a0d5becc4328c46a", "lessThan": "a37eecb705f33726f1fb7cd2a67e514a15dfe693", "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/pinctrl/pinctrl-mcp23s08.c" ], "versions": [ { "version": "4.13", "status": "affected" }, { "version": "0", "lessThan": "4.13", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "semver" }, { "version": "5.4.289", "lessThanOrEqual": "5.4.*", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "semver" }, { "version": "5.10.233", "lessThanOrEqual": "5.10.*", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "semver" }, { "version": "5.15.176", "lessThanOrEqual": "5.15.*", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "semver" }, { "version": "6.1.124", "lessThanOrEqual": "6.1.*", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "semver" }, { "version": "6.6.70", "lessThanOrEqual": "6.6.*", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "semver" }, { "version": "6.12.9", "lessThanOrEqual": "6.12.*", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "semver" }, { "version": "6.13", "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": "4.13", "versionEndExcluding": "5.4.289" }, { "vulnerable": true, "criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*", "versionStartIncluding": "4.13", "versionEndExcluding": "5.10.233" }, { "vulnerable": true, "criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*", "versionStartIncluding": "4.13", "versionEndExcluding": "5.15.176" }, { "vulnerable": true, "criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*", "versionStartIncluding": "4.13", "versionEndExcluding": "6.1.124" }, { "vulnerable": true, "criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*", "versionStartIncluding": "4.13", "versionEndExcluding": "6.6.70" }, { "vulnerable": true, "criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*", "versionStartIncluding": "4.13", "versionEndExcluding": "6.12.9" }, { "vulnerable": true, "criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*", "versionStartIncluding": "4.13", "versionEndExcluding": "6.13" } ] } ] } ], "references": [ { "url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/788d9e9a41b81893d6bb8faa05f045c975278318" }, { "url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/c55d186376a87b468c9ee30f2195e0f3857f61a0" }, { "url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/9372e160d8211a7e17f2abff8370794f182df785" }, { "url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/0310cbad163a908d09d99c26827859365cd71fcb" }, { "url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/8c6fd5803b988a5e78c9b9e42c70a936d7cfc6ec" }, { "url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/830f838589522404cd7c2f0f540602f25034af61" }, { "url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/a37eecb705f33726f1fb7cd2a67e514a15dfe693" } ], "title": "pinctrl: mcp23s08: Fix sleeping in atomic context due to regmap locking", "x_generator": { "engine": "bippy-1.2.0" } }, "adp": [ { "title": "CVE Program Container", "references": [ { "url": "https://lists.debian.org/debian-lts-announce/2025/03/msg00001.html" }, { "url": "https://lists.debian.org/debian-lts-announce/2025/03/msg00002.html" } ], "providerMetadata": { "orgId": "af854a3a-2127-422b-91ae-364da2661108", "shortName": "CVE", "dateUpdated": "2025-11-03T20:54:59.702Z" } } ] } }
