Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br />
<br />
net: stmmac: dwc-qos: Disable split header for Tegra194<br />
<br />
There is a long-standing issue with the Synopsys DWC Ethernet driver<br />
for Tegra194 where random system crashes have been observed [0]. The<br />
problem occurs when the split header feature is enabled in the stmmac<br />
driver. In the bad case, a larger than expected buffer length is<br />
received and causes the calculation of the total buffer length to<br />
overflow. This results in a very large buffer length that causes the<br />
kernel to crash. Why this larger buffer length is received is not clear,<br />
however, the feedback from the NVIDIA design team is that the split<br />
header feature is not supported for Tegra194. Therefore, disable split<br />
header support for Tegra194 to prevent these random crashes from<br />
occurring.<br />
