This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled crypto: ccp - Avoid page allocation failure warning for SEV_GET_ID2 to the 6.1-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: crypto-ccp-avoid-page-allocation-failure-warning-for.patch and it can be found in the queue-6.1 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit 3c146099c6f7b35c0c6b2647cf9978bfcc17b97c Author: David Rientjes <rientjes@xxxxxxxxxx> Date: Fri Dec 30 14:18:46 2022 -0800 crypto: ccp - Avoid page allocation failure warning for SEV_GET_ID2 [ Upstream commit 91dfd98216d817ec5f1c55890bacb7b4fe9b068a ] For SEV_GET_ID2, the user provided length does not have a specified limitation because the length of the ID may change in the future. The kernel memory allocation, however, is implicitly limited to 4MB on x86 by the page allocator, otherwise the kzalloc() will fail. When this happens, it is best not to spam the kernel log with the warning. Simply fail the allocation and return ENOMEM to the user.
