Subject: [PATCH v2 05/10] liveupdate: Don't WARN if tracking a retrieved file fails
Date: Thu, 22 Oct 2026 22:50:30 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261022225035.377445-6-dmatlack@google.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20261022225035.377445-1-dmatlack@google.com>

Handle a failure to add a retrieved file to luo_preserved_files instead
of triggering a WARN_ON(). xa_insert() can fail with -ENOMEM, and
userspace can trigger that with LIVEUPDATE_SESSION_RETRIEVE_FD, so
warning about it lets userspace crash systems with panic_on_warn.

The handler has already consumed the preserved state when this happens,
so make the failure permanent. Keep the file until the file set is
finished, like any other retrieved file, so that its resources are not
released before then. Finishing the file set then erases the file from
luo_preserved_files, which does nothing for a file that was never added.

Fixes: 00d0b372374f ("liveupdate: prevent double management of files")
