What to do
AI-suggested
A fix has been applied to the Linux kernel source to correct the return value handling in iommu_map_sgtable(). Users should update to a kernel version that includes this patch. Since this is a source-level fix, distributions incorporating this patch will have resolved the issue. Patch status is confirmed resolved by the vendor commit referenced in the advisory.
Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: drm/msm: Fix iommu_map_sgtable() return value check and avoid WARN Commit "iommu: return full error code from iommu_map_sg[_atomic]()" changed iommu_map_sgtable() to return an ssize_t and negative values in error cases, rather than a size_t and a zero. Store the return value in the appropriate type and in case of error, return it rather than WARNing. Patchwork: https://patchwork.freedesktop.org/patch/719685/
