tpm2_sessions_init() does not ignore the result of tpm2_create_null_primary(). Address this by returning -ENODEV to the caller. Given that upper layers cannot help healing the situation further, deal with the TPM error here by
Cc: [email protected] # v6.10+ Fixes: d2add27cf2b8 ("tpm: Add NULL primary creation") Signed-off-by: Jarkko Sakkinen <[email protected]> --- v6: - Address: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-integrity/[email protected]/ as TPM RC is taken care of at the call site. Add also the missing documentation for the return values. v5: - Do not print klog messages on error, as tpm2_save_context() already takes care of this. v4: - Fixed up stable version. v3: - Handle TPM and POSIX error separately and return -ENODEV always back to the caller. v2: - Refined the commit message. --- drivers/char/tpm/tpm2-sessions.c | 7 ++++++- 1 file changed, 6 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/drivers/char/tpm/tpm2-sessions.c b/drivers/char/tpm/tpm2-sessions.c index 511c67061728..253639767c1e 100644 --- a/drivers/char/tpm/tpm2-sessions.c +++ b/drivers/char/tpm/tpm2-sessions.c @@ -1347,6 +1347,11 @@ static int tpm2_create_null_primary(struct tpm_chip *chip) * * Derive and context save the null primary and allocate memory in the * struct tpm_chip for the authorizations. + * + * Return: + * * 0 - OK + * * -errno - A system error + * * TPM_RC - A TPM error */ int tpm2_sessions_init(struct tpm_chip *chip) { @@ -1354,7 +1359,7 @@ int tpm2_sessions_init(struct tpm_chip *chip) rc = tpm2_create_null_primary(chip); if (rc) - dev_err(&chip->dev, "TPM: security failed (NULL seed derivation): %d\n", rc); + return rc; chip->auth = kmalloc(sizeof(*chip->auth), GFP_KERNEL); if (!chip->auth) -- 2.47.0
