CVE-2026-45973 Detail

Description

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: RDMA/mlx5: Fix UMR hang in LAG error state unload During firmware reset in LAG mode, a race condition causes the driver to hang indefinitely while waiting for UMR completion during device unload. See [1]. In LAG mode the bond device is only registered on the master, so it never sees sys_error events from the slave. During firmware reset this causes UMR waits to hang forever on unload as the slave is dead but the master hasn't entered error state yet, so UMR posts succeed but completions never arrive. Fix this by adding a sys_error notifier that gets registered before MLX5_IB_STAGE_IB_REG and stays alive until after ib_unregister_device(). This ensures error events reach the bond device throughout teardown.
