Ashish Kalra 4f13d471e5 KVM: SVM: Fix SEV SEND_START session length & SEND_UPDATE_DATA query length after commit 238eca821c
Commit 238eca821c ("KVM: SVM: Allocate SEV command structures on local stack")
uses the local stack to allocate the structures used to communicate with the PSP,
which were earlier being kzalloced. This breaks SEV live migration for
computing the SEND_START session length and SEND_UPDATE_DATA query length as
session_len and trans_len and hdr_len fields are not zeroed respectively for
the above commands before issuing the SEV Firmware API call, hence the
firmware returns incorrect session length and update data header or trans length.

Also the SEV Firmware API returns SEV_RET_INVALID_LEN firmware error
for these length query API calls, and the return value and the
firmware error needs to be passed to the userspace as it is, so
need to remove the return check in the KVM code.

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
