Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
irqchip/qcom-mpm: Prevent crash when trying to handle non-wake GPIOs
On Qualcomm chipsets not all GPIOs are wakeup capable. Those GPIOs do not
have a corresponding MPM pin and should not be handled inside the MPM
driver. The IRQ domain hierarchy is always applied, so it's required to
explicitly disconnect the hierarchy for those. The pinctrl-msm driver marks
these with GPIO_NO_WAKE_IRQ. qcom-pdc has a check for this, but
irq-qcom-mpm is currently missing the check. This is causing crashes when
setting up interrupts for non-wake GPIOs:
root@rb1:~# gpiomon -c gpiochip1 10
irq: IRQ159: trimming hierarchy from :soc@0:interrupt-controller@f200000-1
Unable to handle kernel paging request at virtual address ffff8000a1dc3820
Hardware name: Qualcomm Technologies, Inc. Robotics RB1 (DT)
pc : mpm_set_type+0x80/0xcc
lr : mpm_set_type+0x5c/0xcc
Call trace:
mpm_set_type+0x80/0xcc (P)
qcom_mpm_set_type+0x64/0x158
irq_chip_set_type_parent+0x20/0x38
msm_gpio_irq_set_type+0x50/0x530
__irq_set_trigger+0x60/0x184
__setup_irq+0x304/0x6bc

edge_detector_setup+0x260/0x364
linereq_create+0x420/0x5a8
gpio_ioctl+0x2d4/0x6c0
Fix this by copying the check for GPIO_NO_WAKE_IRQ from qcom-pdc.c, so that
MPM is removed entirely from the hierarchy for non-wake GPIOs.
