Summary
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: serial/pmac_zilog: Remove flawed mitigation for rx irq flood The mitigation was intended to stop the irq completely. That may be better than a hard lock-up but it turns out that you get a crash anyway if you're using pmac_zilog as a serial console: ttyPZ0: pmz: rx irq flood ! BUG: spinlock recursion on CPU#0, swapper/0 That's because the pr_err() call in pmz_receive_chars() results in pmz_console_write() attempting to lock a spinlock already locked in pmz_interrupt(). With CONFIG_DEBUG_SPINLOCK=y, this produces a fatal BUG splat. The spinlock in question is the one in struct uart_port. Even when it's not fatal, the serial port rx function ceases to work. Also, the iteration limit doesn't play nicely with QEMU, as can be seen in the bug report linked below. A web search for other reports of the error message "pmz: rx irq flood" didn't produce anything. So I don't think this code is needed any more. Remove it.

Esto puede ser mejor que un bloqueo duro, pero resulta que de todos modos se bloquea si est\u00e1s usando pmac_zilog como consola serie: ttyPZ0: pmz: rx irq Flood ! ERROR: recursi\u00f3n de spinlock en CPU#0, swapper/0 Esto se debe a que la llamada pr_err() en pmz_receive_chars() da como resultado que pmz_console_write() intente bloquear un spinlock ya bloqueado en pmz_interrupt(). Con CONFIG_DEBUG_SPINLOCK=y, esto produce un error fatal. El spinlock en cuesti\u00f3n es el de la estructura uart_port. Incluso cuando no es fatal, la funci\u00f3n de recepci\u00f3n del puerto serie deja de funcionar. Adem\u00e1s, el l\u00edmite de iteraci\u00f3n no funciona bien con QEMU, como se puede ver en el informe de error vinculado a continuaci\u00f3n. Una b\u00fasqueda en la web de otros informes del mensaje de error \\\"pmz: rx irq Flood\\\" no produjo nada. As\u00ed que no creo que este c\u00f3digo ya sea necesario.
