[PATCH v6 01/26] powerpc/pseries: Fix handling of PLPKS object flushing timeout

From: Andrew Donnellan <hidden>
Date: 2023-02-10 08:11:29
Also in: linux-integrity, lkml
Subsystem: linux for powerpc (32-bit and 64-bit), the rest · Maintainers: Madhavan Srinivasan, Linus Torvalds

plpks_confirm_object_flushed() uses the H_PKS_CONFIRM_OBJECT_FLUSHED hcall
to check whether changes to an object in the Platform KeyStore have been
flushed to non-volatile storage.

The hcall returns two output values, the return code and the flush status.
plpks_confirm_object_flushed() polls the hcall until either the flush
status has updated, the return code is an error, or a timeout has been
exceeded.

While we're still polling, the hcall is returning H_SUCCESS (0) as the
return code. In the timeout case, this means that upon exiting the polling
loop, rc is 0, and therefore 0 is returned to the user.

Handle the timeout case separately and return ETIMEDOUT if triggered.

v3: Merge plpks fixes and signed update series with secvar series

    Neaten how we return at the end of the function (ruscur)

v4: Move up in series (npiggin)
