[PATCH] KVM: x86: Fix KVM_GET_CPUID2 ioctl to return cpuid entries count

From: Valeriy Vdovin
Date: Wed Apr 28 2021 - 07:37:15 EST


KVM_GET_CPUID2 kvm ioctl is not very well documented, but the way it is
implemented in function kvm_vcpu_ioctl_get_cpuid2 suggests that even at
error path it will try to return number of entries to the caller. But
The dispatcher kvm vcpu ioctl dispatcher code in kvm_arch_vcpu_ioctl
ignores any output from this function if it sees the error return code.

It's very explicit by the code that it was designed to receive some
small number of entries to return E2BIG along with the corrected number.

This lost logic in the dispatcher code has been restored by removing the
lines that check for function return code and skip if error is found.
Without it, the ioctl caller will see both the number of entries and the
correct error.

In selftests relevant function vcpu_get_cpuid has also been modified to
utilize the number of cpuid entries returned along with errno E2BIG.
