It's fine to return error codes, but at the very least we should have a comment saying "We throw away all errors because we cannot handle them and this is always fine to do, because of X". > > For the Linux errors (like -ENOMEM): Due to the asynchronous nature of > the ITS command handling and also the guest triggering the commands, > there is really no better way to report those OoM conditions, for > instance, so I treated them the same as "proper" ITS errors. I feel like a -ENOMEM should be reported back to userspace so we can give up on our giant resource hogging VM instead of just grinding on. Isn't this all done as part of a MMIO write, so you can return the error from that thing? If you were running this in a separate thread, it would be an entirely more difficult matter.
