The\ncallers of do_inject_vcpu() are modified to pass the pointer to the\nbool flag; whenever a Store Status operation is needed, the callers can\nnow perform it outside the spinlock.\n\nOpportunistically refactor kvm_s390_set_irq_state() to use\nscoped_guard() and __free().\n\n[ Added Fixes tag while picking -- Claudio ]\n\n## Affected\n\n- `Linux >= 6cddd432e3da5e25eccbc13844d03c871674a62e < 3bd77c59576b1d447fd56cc689ae9523a334b924`\n- `Linux >= 6cddd432e3da5e25eccbc13844d03c871674a62e < a379ac504fcb8c6fc2aa36203f5489b9581eb2e0`\n- `Linux >= 6cddd432e3da5e25eccbc13844d03c871674a62e < d0e3bf633f0585a0c2c2105ea7723777d764fae5`\n- `Linux >= 6cddd432e3da5e25eccbc13844d03c871674a62e < d343407b728a80b74be3c24b59f15e60289ea527`\n- `Linux 4.0`\n\n## Remediation\n\nRefer to the linked advisories for vendor-supplied fixes and affected version ranges.","depth":"sunlit","depthScore":3,"depthScoreParts":{"impact":2.8,"likelihood":0,"exploitation":0,"ransomware":0},"changes":[]}
