DescriptionNVD

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

net: stmmac: dwmac-tegra: Read iommu stream id from device tree

Nvidia's Tegra MGBE controllers require the IOMMU "Stream ID" (SID) to be written to the MGBE_WRAP_AXI_ASID0_CTRL register.

The current driver is hard coded to use MGBE0's SID for all controllers. This causes softirq time outs and kernel panics when using controllers other than MGBE0.

Example dmesg errors when an ethernet cable is connected to MGBE1:
