commit b791a67f68121d69108640d4a3e591d210ffe850 upstream. The function ucsi_displayport_work() does not access the connector, so it also must not acquire the connector lock. This fixes a potential deadlock scenario: ucsi_displayport_work() -> lock(&con->lock) typec_altmode_vdm() dp_altmode_vdm() dp_altmode_work() typec_altmode_enter() ucsi_displayport_enter() -> lock(&con->lock) Reported-by: Mathias Nyman <mathias.nyman@linux.intel.com> Fixes: af8622f6a585 ("usb: typec: ucsi: Support for DisplayPort alt mode") Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org Signed-off-by: Heikki Krogerus <heikki.krogerus@linux.intel.com> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20240507134316.161999-1-heikki.krogerus@linux.intel.com Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>
Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
