Summary

In the Linux kernel's pmdomain module for i.MX8MP, there is an issue with the VC8000E power up sequence. According to the errata, it is necessary to gate off the clock before powering up and enable it after, to avoid handshake hang.

Risk Assessment

Incorrect sequence can lead to system hang during VC8000E power up/down cycling, potentially affecting system availability.

Recommendation

Apply a Linux kernel update that includes the fix implementing the workaround for errata ERR050531.

Original NVD description (English source)

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: pmdomain: imx: Fix i.MX8MP VC8000E power up sequence Per errata[1]: ERR050531: VPU_NOC power down handshake may hang during VC8000E/VPUMIX power up/down cycling. Description: VC8000E reset de-assertion edge and AXI clock may have a timing issue. Workaround: Set bit2 (vc8000e_clk_en) of BLK_CLK_EN_CSR to 0 to gate off both AXI clock and VC8000E clock sent to VC8000E and AXI clock sent to VPU_NOC m_v_2 interface during VC8000E power up(VC8000E reset is de-asserted by HW) Add a bool variable is_errata_err050531 in 'struct imx8m_blk_ctrl_domain_data' to represent whether the workaround is needed. If is_errata_err050531 is true, first clear the clk before powering up gpc, then enable the clk after powering up gpc. [1] https://www.nxp.com/webapp/Download?colCode=IMX8MP_1P33A
