Description

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br /> <br /> parisc: Do not reprogram affinitiy on ASP chip<br /> <br /> The ASP chip is a very old variant of the GSP chip and is used e.g. in<br /> HP 730 workstations. When trying to reprogram the affinity it will crash<br /> with a HPMC as the relevant registers don&amp;#39;t seem to be at the usual<br /> location. Let&amp;#39;s avoid the crash by checking the sversion. Also note,<br /> that reprogramming isn&amp;#39;t necessary either, as the HP730 is a just a<br /> single-CPU machine.
