      <title>CVE-2022-49986 — scsi: storvsc: Remove WQ_MEM_RECLAIM from storvsc_error_wq</title>
      <link>https://vulnerability.circl.lu/vuln/cve-2022-49986</link>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Affected:&lt;/strong&gt; Linux&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;scsi: storvsc: Remove WQ_MEM_RECLAIM from storvsc_error_wq&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;storvsc_error_wq workqueue should not be marked as WQ_MEM_RECLAIM as it
doesn&amp;#39;t need to make forward progress under memory pressure.  Marking this
workqueue as WQ_MEM_RECLAIM may cause deadlock while flushing a
non-WQ_MEM_RECLAIM workqueue.  In the current state it causes the following
warning:&lt;/p&gt;
