Summary
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: scsi: storvsc: Fix swiotlb bounce buffer leak in confidential VM storvsc_queuecommand() maps the scatter/gather list using scsi_dma_map(), which in a confidential VM allocates swiotlb bounce buffers. If the I/O submission fails in storvsc_do_io(), the I/O is typically retried by higher level code, but the bounce buffer memory is never freed. The mostly like cause of I/O submission failure is a full VMBus channel ring buffer, which is not uncommon under high I/O loads. Eventually enough bounce buffer memory leaks that the confidential VM can't do any I/O. The same problem can arise in a non-confidential VM with kernel boot parameter swiotlb=force. Fix this by doing scsi_dma_unmap() in the case of an I/O submission error, which frees the bounce buffer memory.

Si el envío de E/S falla en storvsc_do_io(), la E/S normalmente se reintenta mediante código de nivel superior, pero la memoria del búfer de rebote nunca se libera. La causa más común de falla en el envío de E/S es un búfer de anillo de canal VMBus lleno, lo cual no es infrecuente bajo cargas de E/S elevadas. Con el tiempo, se pierden suficientes memorias del búfer de rebote como para que la máquina virtual confidencial no pueda realizar ninguna E/S. El mismo problema puede surgir en una máquina virtual no confidencial con el parámetro de arranque del kernel swiotlb=force. Solucione este problema haciendo scsi_dma_unmap() en el caso de un error de envío de E/S, lo que libera la memoria del búfer de rebote.",
