However, if driver load fails, this protection is\ninsufficient because drm_dev_unplug() is never called.\n\nAdditionally, devm release functions cannot guarantee that all BOs with\nGGTT mappings are destroyed before the GGTT MMIO region is removed, as\nsome BOs may be freed asynchronously by worker threads.\n\nTo address this, introduce an open-coded flag, protected by the GGTT\nlock, that guards GGTT MMIO access. The flag is cleared during the\ndev_fini_ggtt devm release function to ensure MMIO access is disabled\nonce teardown begins.\n\n(cherry picked from commit 4f3a998a173b4325c2efd90bdadc6ccd3ad9a431)\n\n## Affected\n\n- `linux_kernel >= 6.12, < 6.12.78`\n- `linux_kernel >= 6.13, < 6.18.20`\n- `linux_kernel >= 6.19, < 6.19.10`\n- `linux_kernel = 7.0`\n\n## Remediation\n\nUpgrade past the affected range:\n\n- `linux_kernel 6.19.10`\n\n## Vendor advisories\n\n- **RHSA-2026:67150** · Red Hat · fixed in: Red Hat Enterprise Linux AppStream (v. 9), Red Hat Enterprise Linux BaseOS (v. 9), Red Hat Enterprise Linux CodeReady Linux Builder (v. 9), Red Hat Enterprise Linux Real Time for NFV (v. 9), Red Hat Enterprise Linux Real Time (v. 9) · released 2026-09-14 · [advisory](https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2026:67150)\n- **Red Hat VEX** · Moderate · affected: Red Hat Enterprise Linux 9 · no fix planned: Red Hat Enterprise Linux 9 · updated 2026-09-15 · [vex](https://security.access.redhat.com/data/csaf/v2/vex/2026/cve-2026-23466.json)\n- **RHSA-2026:67471** · Red Hat · fixed in: Red Hat Enterprise Linux AppStream (v. 10), Red Hat Enterprise Linux BaseOS (v. 10), Red Hat Enterprise Linux CodeReady Linux Builder (v. 10), Red Hat Enterprise Linux Real Time for NFV (v. 10), Red Hat Enterprise Linux Real Time (v. 10) · released 2026-09-15 · [advisory](https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2026:67471)","depth":"twilight","depthScore":43,"depthScoreParts":{"impact":42.9,"likelihood":0,"exploitation":0,"ransomware":0},"changes":[]}
