Could "bio_vec" be referenced any time?

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi all,
	I write a module that creates a kernel thread to show the BIOs from
MD modules.
	The kernel thread will call show_bio() when md passing a BIO to my
module,else sleep.
	Sometimes, show_bio() continues working successfully ,but it
somtimes makes "general protection fault".
	The show_bio() always works when I comment the
"bio_for_each_segment" loop. 
	Is the zone I comment the cause of the fault? 
	As above, I consider it's the main problem.Also, I strongly want to
know your opinions.Thank you for help.

	THX

void show_bio(struct bio *bio)
{
        int segno;
        struct bio_vec *bvec;
        struct bio *pbio;
        //pbio=bio_clone(bio,GFP_KERNEL);
        printk(KERN_INFO "#### bio info #### add segno:%x\n",&segno);
        printk(KERN_INFO "start:%Lu, len :%Lu, bi_vcnt:%d,
bi_phys_segments:%d bi_hw_segments:%d\n",
 
bio->bi_sector,bio->bi_size,bio->bi_vcnt,bio->bi_phys_segments,bio->bi_hw_se
gments);
        /*
        bio_for_each_segment(bvec,bio,segno)
        {

                if(page_has_buffers(bvec->bv_page))
                        printk("page_has_buffer!\n");
                printk(KERN_INFO "page:%x bv_len:%d bv_offset:%d \n",
                bvec->bv_page,
                bvec->bv_len,
                bvec->bv_offset);
        }
        */
