Summary
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/mlx5e: Fix DMA FIFO desync on error CQE SQ recovery
In case of a TX error CQE, a recovery flow is triggered,
mlx5e_reset_txqsq_cc_pc() resets dma_fifo_cc to 0 but not dma_fifo_pc,
desyncing the DMA FIFO producer and consumer.
After recovery, the producer pushes new DMA entries at the old
dma_fifo_pc, while the consumer reads from position 0.
This causes us to unmap stale DMA addresses from before the recovery.
The DMA FIFO is a purely software construct with no HW counterpart.
At the point of reset, all WQEs have been flushed so dma_fifo_cc is
already equal to dma_fifo_pc. There is no need to reset either counter,
similar to how skb_fifo pc/cc are untouched.
Remove the 'dma_fifo_cc = 0' reset.
This fixes the following WARNING:
