Subject: [PATCH v2 2/4] KVM: arm64: vgic: Don't leak the SPI array when init is retried
Date: Fri,  7 Aug 2026 11:41:00 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260807104102.2410744-3-fuad.tabba@linux.dev> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260807104102.2410744-1-fuad.tabba@linux.dev>

Nothing latches a failed vgic_init(), so userspace can retry
KVM_DEV_ARM_VGIC_CTRL_INIT after a failure past kvm_vgic_dist_init().
kvm_vgic_setup_default_irq_routing() is the reachable case, running on
every configuration. Each retry overwrites dist->spis and only the last
allocation is freed at teardown, leaking up to 960 struct vgic_irq,
about 90KB, per attempt.

Return early when the array is already allocated, as
vgic_allocate_private_irqs_locked() and vgic_v4_init() do.

Fixes: ad275b8bb1e65 ("KVM: arm/arm64: vgic-new: vgic_init: implement vgic_init")
