In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
iommu/amd: serialize sequence allocation under concurrent TLB invalidations
With concurrent TLB invalidations, completion wait randomly gets timed out
because cmd_sem_val was incremented outside the IOMMU spinlock, allowing
CMD_COMPL_WAIT commands to be queued out of sequence and breaking the
ordering assumption in wait_on_sem().
Move the cmd_sem_val increment under iommu->lock so completion sequence
allocation is serialized with command queuing.
And remove the unnecessary return.
