If ps_state is\nPS_STATE_SLEEP, it will first schedule psdata->work, and then it will\nreschedule itself once UART break has been turned off and ps_state is\nPS_STATE_AWAKE.\n\nTested above script for 50,000 iterations and TX timeout error was not\nobserved anymore." } ], "affected": [ { "product": "Linux", "vendor": "Linux", "defaultStatus": "unaffected", "repo": "https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git", "programFiles": [ "drivers/bluetooth/btnxpuart.c" ], "versions": [ { "version": "689ca16e523278470c38832a3010645a78c544d8", "lessThan": "9d5df94ce0e213d5b549633f528f96114c736190", "status": "affected", "versionType": "git" }, { "version": "689ca16e523278470c38832a3010645a78c544d8", "lessThan": "e4db90e4eb8d5487098712ffb1048f3fa6d25e98", "status": "affected", "versionType": "git" } ] }, { "product": "Linux", "vendor": "Linux", "defaultStatus": "affected", "repo": "https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git", "programFiles": [ "drivers/bluetooth/btnxpuart.c" ], "versions": [ { "version": "6.4", "status": "affected" }, { "version": "0", "lessThan": "6.4", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "semver" }, { "version": "6.6.49", "lessThanOrEqual": "6.6.*", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "semver" }, { "version": "6.9", "lessThanOrEqual": "*", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "original_commit_for_fix" } ] } ], "cpeApplicability": [ { "nodes": [ { "operator": "OR", "negate": false, "cpeMatch": [ { "vulnerable": true, "criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*", "versionStartIncluding": "6.4", "versionEndExcluding": "6.6.49" }, { "vulnerable": true, "criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*", "versionStartIncluding": "6.4", "versionEndExcluding": "6.9" } ] } ] } ], "references": [ { "url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/9d5df94ce0e213d5b549633f528f96114c736190" }, { "url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/e4db90e4eb8d5487098712ffb1048f3fa6d25e98" } ], "title": "Bluetooth: btnxpuart: Resolve TX timeout error in power save stress test", "x_generator": { "engine": "bippy-1.2.0" } } } }
