Summary

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: net: enetc: VFs do not support HWTSTAMP_TX_ONESTEP_SYNC Actually ENETC VFs do not support HWTSTAMP_TX_ONESTEP_SYNC because only ENETC PF can access PMa_SINGLE_STEP registers. And there will be a crash if VFs are used to test one-step timestamp, the crash log as follows. [ 129.110909] Unable to handle kernel paging request at virtual address 00000000000080c0 [ 129.287769] Call trace: [ 129.290219] enetc_port_mac_wr+0x30/0xec (P) [ 129.294504] enetc_start_xmit+0xda4/0xe74 [ 129.298525] enetc_xmit+0x70/0xec [ 129.301848] dev_hard_start_xmit+0x98/0x118
