AI-suggested

A fix is available and has been applied in Linux kernel version 7.0.0 and later releases listed in the established facts. Users should upgrade to these fixed kernel versions to resolve the issue. The fix involves setting the uwtable LLVM module flag conditionally based on the rustc compiler version. No additional mitigations are indicated or required according to the vendor advisory.

Description

A vulnerability in the Linux kernel's Rust compiler integration for ARM64 was resolved. The issue stemmed from a rustc bug causing missing uwtable annotations on compiler-generated functions, leading to boot failures when certain kernel configurations were enabled. This could cause crashes during system boot due to improper patching of constructor functions. The fix involves setting the uwtable LLVM module flag conditionally based on the rustc version, with the upstream Rust compiler fix expected in version 1.98.0. Multiple Linux kernel versions are affected, and fixes are available in Linux kernel 7.0.0 releases.
