Subject: [PATCH v4 10/13] KVM: s390: Fix cleanup in kvm_s390_pv_create_cpu()
Date: Tue, 28 Jul 2026 19:07:05 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260728170708.294400-11-imbrenda@linux.ibm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260728170708.294400-1-imbrenda@linux.ibm.com>
If creating a protected vCPU in kvm_s390_pv_create_cpu() fails,
kvm_s390_pv_destroy_cpu() was called, which checks whether the vCPU has
a PV handle and exits doing nothing otherwise. At that point, due to
not having created the protected vCPU, the PV handle will not be set,
and kvm_s390_pv_destroy_cpu() will do nothing, thus leaking the
allocated memory.
Fix by factoring out the code to free and reset a PV vCPU; call it from
kvm_s390_pv_destroy_cpu() and kvm_s390_pv_create_cpu().
Opportunistically fix the return value of kvm_s390_pv_destroy_cpu() in
case of errors: return -EIO instead if EIO.
Fixes: d4074324b07a ("KVM: s390: pv: avoid double free of sida page")
