Description
A flaw was found in the Linux kernel’s remoteproc subsystem for Qualcomm processors (“qcom: pas”). On X1E platforms, the ADSP (Audio DSP) firmware has separate binaries for the main firmware and a DTB (“device tree blob”), including a “lite” version for each. While shutting down the “lite” ADSP for the main firmware, the corresponding “lite DTB” ADSP instance was not being shut down, leading to a scenario where part of the firmware remains active indefinitely.
