[PATCH] ppc64: iommu vmerge fix]

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

 



From: Brian King <[email protected]>

(Looks quite bad, should probably get in right away)

The patch below fixes a bug in the PPC64 iommu vmerge code
which results in the potential for iommu_unmap_sg to go off
unmapping more than it should. This was found on a test system
which resulted in PCI bus errors due to PCI memory being
unmapped while DMAs were still in progress.
