Details

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

RDMA/mlx5: Fix implicit ODP hang on parent deregistration

Fix the destroyunusedimplicitchildmr() to prevent hanging during parent deregistration as of below [1].

Upon entering destroyunusedimplicitchildmr(), the reference count for the implicit MR parent is incremented using: refcountincnot_zero().

A corresponding decrement must be performed if freeimplicitchildmrwork() is not called.

The code has been updated to properly manage the reference count that was incremented.
