clocksource/drivers/timer-sun4i: Advertise a real minimum delta
Summary
| CVE | CVE-2026-93219 |
| State | PUBLISHED |
| Assigner | Linux |
| Source Priority | CVE Program / NVD first with legacy fallback |

| Description | In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
clocksource/drivers/timer-sun4i: Advertise a real minimum delta
sun4i_clkevt_next_event() compensates for the timer stop/start
synchronization delay by programming evt - TIMER_SYNC_TICKS into the
hardware interval register. The clockevent device currently advertises
TIMER_SYNC_TICKS as min_delta_ticks, so the clockevents core is allowed
to call set_next_event() with evt == TIMER_SYNC_TICKS.
That programs a zero-tick interval. With oneshot/highres/nohz timer
operation this can leave the next event stuck, which was observed as a
boot hang on Allwinner D1 after the clockevents core started reusing
forced minimum-delta events.
Advertise one extra tick instead, so the smallest event accepted by the
core still programs at least one hardware tick after the synchronization
compensation. |
