Subject: [PATCH v2 1/2] KVM: arm64: Fix potential leak in hyp_trace_buffer_alloc_bpages_backing
Date: Fri, 10 Jul 2026 12:48:18 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260710114819.2689386-2-vdonnefort@google.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260710114819.2689386-1-vdonnefort@google.com>

In the very unlikely event of a failure in __map_hyp, the allocated
backing pages are leaked in hyp_trace_buffer_alloc_bpages_backing(). Fix
this by freeing the pages on error.

Fixes: 3aed038aac8d ("KVM: arm64: Add trace remote for the nVHE/pKVM hyp")
