[PATCH v2 1/3] Drivers: hv: vmbus: Fix error paths in vmbus_teardown_gpadl()

From: Michael Kelley <hidden>
Date: 2026-09-07 21:49:17
Also in: linux-hyperv, lkml
Subsystem: hyper-v/azure core and drivers, the rest · Maintainers: "K. Y. Srinivasan", Haiyang Zhang, Wei Liu, Dexuan Cui, Long Li, Linus Torvalds

In vmbus_teardown_gpadl(), the return value from vmbus_post_msg() is
overwritten by the logic that decides if set_memory_encrypted() should
run. A failure from vmbus_post_msg() is lost and vmbus_teardown_gpadl()
may incorrectly report success. Furthermore, if vmbus_post_msg() fails,
the GPADL remains active on the Hyper-V side, yet in a CoCo VM the
buffer will be re-encrypted anyway.

Fix this by gating buffer re-encryption on success from vmbus_post_msg().
And if either function fails, mark the buffer as decrypted so the memory
will be leaked. The decrypted flag does double-duty: in a CoCo VM it
indicates the decryption status, but at buffer cleanup time in all VMs
it is a "should be leaked due to error" flag.
