TPM2 ACPI table is data structure ;-) Just to make the commit message less confusing, please refer to active actors. > > This patch replaces the devm_kmalloc() call with kvmalloc() to allow > larger sizes.

Please remove this link as it gives no information without login access, *or* make it available w/o acocunt, *or* repost a bug to the kernel bugzilla. I've been cursing SUSE accounts for over a year now. Never been able to successfully get either to the bugzilla or forums (still I get some weekly spam about the forums). And no, no interest to recall or figure out this problem. > Signed-off-by: Takashi Iwai <tiwai@xxxxxxx> > --- > drivers/char/tpm/eventlog/acpi.c | 21 ++++++++++++++++++--- > 1 file changed, 18 insertions(+), 3 deletions(-) > > diff --git a/drivers/char/tpm/eventlog/acpi.c b/drivers/char/tpm/eventlog/acpi.c > index 69533d0bfb51..56f7d73fa6bf 100644 > --- a/drivers/char/tpm/eventlog/acpi.c > +++ b/drivers/char/tpm/eventlog/acpi.c > @@ -63,6 +63,13 @@ static bool tpm_is_tpm2_log(void *bios_event_log, u64 len) > return n == 0; > } > > +static void bios_event_log_release(struct device *dev, void *res) > +{ > + void **logp = res; > + > + kvfree(*logp); > +} > + > /* read binary bios log */ > int tpm_read_log_acpi(struct tpm_chip *chip) > { > @@ -71,6 +78,7 @@ int tpm_read_log_acpi(struct tpm_chip *chip) > void __iomem *virt; > u64 len, start; > struct tpm_bios_log *log; > + void **logp; > struct acpi_table_tpm2 *tbl; > struct acpi_tpm2_phy *tpm2_phy; > int format; > @@ -136,9 +144,16 @@ int tpm_read_log_acpi(struct tpm_chip *chip) > } > > /* malloc EventLog space */ > - log->bios_event_log = devm_kmalloc(&chip->dev, len, GFP_KERNEL); > - if (!log->bios_event_log) > + logp = devres_alloc(bios_event_log_release, sizeof(*logp), GFP_KERNEL); > + if (!logp) > return -ENOMEM; How big is it? > + devres_add(&chip->dev, logp); > + log->bios_event_log = kvmalloc(len, GFP_KERNEL); > + if (!log->bios_event_log) { > + ret = -ENOMEM; > + goto err; > + } > + *logp = log->bios_event_log; > > log->bios_event_log_end = log->bios_event_log + len; > > @@ -164,7 +179,7 @@ int tpm_read_log_acpi(struct tpm_chip *chip) > return format; > > err: > - devm_kfree(&chip->dev, log->bios_event_log); > + devres_release(&chip->dev, bios_event_log_release, NULL, NULL); > log->bios_event_log = NULL; > return ret; > } BR, Jarkko
