Description OSIDB Bzimport 2026-07-24 16:01:41 UTC
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

NTB: epf: Avoid pci_iounmap() with offset when PEER_SPAD and CONFIG share BAR

When BAR_PEER_SPAD and BAR_CONFIG share one PCI BAR, the module teardown
path ends up calling pci_iounmap() on the same iomem with some offset,
which is unnecessary and triggers a kernel warning like the following:

  Trying to vunmap() nonexistent vm area (0000000069a5ffe8)
  WARNING: mm/vmalloc.c:3470 at vunmap+0x58/0x68, CPU#5: modprobe/2937

Fix it by unmapping only when PEER_SPAD and CONFIG use difference bars.
