The commit206cc44588("virtio: reject shm region if length is zero") breaks the Virtio-gpu `host_visible` feature. As you can see in the snippet below, host_visible_region is zero because of the `kzalloc`. It's using the `vm_get_shm_region` (drivers/virtio/virtio_mmio.c:536) to read the `addr` and `len` from qemu/crosvm. ``` drivers/gpu/drm/virtio/virtgpu_kms.c 132 vgdev = drmm_kzalloc(dev, sizeof(struct virtio_gpu_device), GFP_KERNEL); [...] 177 if (virtio_get_shm_region(vgdev->vdev, &vgdev->host_visible_region, 178 VIRTIO_GPU_SHM_ID_HOST_VISIBLE)) { ``` Now it always fails. To fix, revert the offending commit.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
