Summary
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
dm crypt: add cond_resched() to dmcrypt_write()
The loop in dmcrypt_write may be running for unbounded amount of time,
thus we need cond_resched() in it.
This commit fixes the following warning:
[ 3391.153255][ C12] watchdog: BUG: soft lockup - CPU#12 stuck for 23s! [dmcrypt_write/2:2897]

The MITRE ATT&CK techniques below are AI-generated suggestions, inferred from the description of the
vulnerability by the CIRCL/vulnerability-attack-technique-classification-roberta-base
model, served locally by ML-Gateway.
They have not been verified by an analyst and are provided for guidance only.
The approach is described in our paper Mapping CVEs to MITRE ATT&CK Techniques: A Curated Gold-Set Classifier and the Limits of LLM-Assisted Label Expansion.
