Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br />
<br />
x86/fred: Fix system hang during S4 resume with FRED enabled<br />
<br />
Upon a wakeup from S4, the restore kernel starts and initializes the<br />
FRED MSRs as needed from its perspective. It then loads a hibernation<br />
image, including the image kernel, and attempts to load image pages<br />
directly into their original page frames used before hibernation unless<br />
those frames are currently in use. Once all pages are moved to their<br />
original locations, it jumps to a "trampoline" page in the image kernel.<br />
<br />
At this point, the image kernel takes control, but the FRED MSRs still<br />
contain values set by the restore kernel, which may differ from those<br />
set by the image kernel before hibernation. Therefore, the image kernel<br />
must ensure the FRED MSRs have the same values as before hibernation.<br />
Since these values depend only on the location of the kernel text and<br />
data, they can be recomputed from scratch.
