Doc Text:
A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's `drm/amdgpu` component, which manages AMD graphics hardware. When the graphics driver is unloaded, it may fail to properly release a memory resource. This oversight can lead to system instability if the driver attempts to reload, causing an error that prevents the graphics hardware from functioning correctly. A local attacker could potentially trigger this issue, leading to a denial of service where the graphics capabilities become unavailable.

Description OSIDB Bzimport 2026-08-10 12:25:16 UTC
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

drm/amdgpu: fix aperture mapping leak

amdgpu_pci_remove() calls drm_dev_unplug() before invoking the driver
fini routines. This causes drm_dev_enter() in amdgpu_ttm_fini() to
always return false, so iounmap(aper_base_kaddr) never runs on normal
driver unload, leaving an orphaned entry in the x86 PAT interval tree.

On connected_to_cpu hardware, the aperture is mapped write-back (WB) via
ioremap_cache(). On reload, IP discovery calls memremap(..., MEMREMAP_WC)
over the same range. The WC vs WB conflict causes:

  ioremap error for 0x..., requested 0x1, got 0x0
  amdgpu: discovery failed: -2

Fix by switching to devres-managed mappings so cleanup is guaranteed
regardless of drm_dev_enter() state:

- connected_to_cpu path: devm_memremap(MEMREMAP_WB). For
  IORESOURCE_SYSTEM_RAM ranges this takes the try_ram_remap() shortcut,
  returning __va(offset) from the existing kernel direct map. No new
  ioremap VA or PAT entry is created, so there is nothing to orphan.

- dGPU path: devm_ioremap_wc() registers iounmap() as a devres action,
  guaranteeing cleanup at device_del() time.

Also remove iounmap(aper_base_kaddr) from amdgpu_device_unmap_mmio()
since the mapping is now devres-owned.

v2: Remove redundant x86_64 guard (Lijo)
