Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br />
<br />
arm64: dts: imx8mm-verdin: Do not power down eth-phy<br />
<br />
Currently if suspending using either freeze or memory state, the fec<br />
driver tries to power down the phy which leads to crash of the kernel<br />
and non-responsible kernel with the following call trace:<br />
<br />
[ 24.839889 ] Call trace:<br />
[ 24.839892 ] phy_error+0x18/0x60<br />
[ 24.839898 ] kszphy_handle_interrupt+0x6c/0x80<br />
[ 24.839903 ] phy_interrupt+0x20/0x2c<br />
[ 24.839909 ] irq_thread_fn+0x30/0xa0<br />
[ 24.839919 ] irq_thread+0x178/0x2c0<br />
[ 24.839925 ] kthread+0x154/0x160<br />
[ 24.839932 ] ret_from_fork+0x10/0x20<br />
<br />
Since there is currently no functionality in the phy subsystem to power<br />
down phys let&#39;s just disable the feature of powering-down the ethernet<br />
phy.
