"value": "In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nHID: appletb-kbd: run inactivity autodim from workqueues\n\nThe autodim code in hid-appletb-kbd takes backlight_device->ops_lock\nvia backlight_device_set_brightness() -> mutex_lock() from two\ndifferent atomic contexts:\n\n * appletb_inactivity_timer() is a struct timer_list callback, so it\n runs in softirq context. Every expiry triggers\n\n BUG: sleeping function called from invalid context at kernel/locking/mutex.c:591\n Call Trace:\n <IRQ>\n __might_resched\n __mutex_lock\n backlight_device_set_brightness\n appletb_inactivity_timer\n call_timer_fn\n run_timer_softirq\n\n * reset_inactivity_timer() is called from appletb_kbd_hid_event() and\n appletb_kbd_inp_event(). On real USB hardware these run in\n softirq/IRQ context (URB completion and input-event dispatch).\n When the Touch Bar has already been dimmed or turned off, the\n reset path calls backlight_device_set_brightness() directly to\n restore brightness, producing the same warning.\n\nBoth call sites hit the same mutex_lock()-from-atomic bug. Fix them\ntogether by moving the blocking work onto the system workqueue:\n\n * Convert the inactivity timer from struct timer_list to\n struct delayed_work; the callback (appletb_inactivity_work) now\n runs in process context where mutex_lock() is legal.\n * Add a dedicated struct work_struct restore_brightness_work and have\n reset_inactivity_timer() schedule it instead of calling\n backlight_device_set_brightness() directly.\n\nCancel both works synchronously during driver tear-down alongside the\nexisting backlight reference drop.\n\nThe semantics are unchanged (same delays, same state transitions on\ndim, turn-off and user activity); only the execution context of the\nsleeping call changes. The timer field and callback are renamed to\nmatch their new type; reset_inactivity_timer() keeps its name because\nit is invoked from input event paths that read naturally as \"reset\nthe inactivity timer\"."
