Remediation

Recommended actions to resolve this vulnerability, in priority order.

  1. Upgrade

    Upgrade to a fixed release to a version that resolves this vulnerability.

    Fixed in 6.6.143.1-1
  2. Configuration

    Remove the call to dev_pm_opp_set_rate(dev, 0) from dpu_runtime_suspend so that on runtime resume the clock can be re-enabled without the rail voltage being dropped to MIN_SVS while the core clock remains at its maximum frequency (MMCX rail/code mismatch).

    Linux kernel DPU runtime suspend dev_pm_opp_set_rate(dev, 0) call presence = remove the call to dev_pm_opp_set_rate(dev, 0) from dpu_runtime_suspend
  3. Compensating control

    Apply the upstream fix referenced by Patchwork patch 710077 (drm/msm/dpu: fix mismatch between power and frequency / resolved vulnerability) to ensure the correct power-frequency vote is restored when the DPU resumes.
