[PATCH] Check bio address after mapping through partitions.

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

 



This would be good for 2.6.19 and even 18.2, if it is seens acceptable.
raid0 at least (possibly other) can be made to Oops with a bad partition 
table and best fix seem to be to not let out-of-range request get down
to the device.

### Comments for Changeset

Partitions are not limited to live within a device.  So
we should range check after partition mapping.

Note that 'maxsector' was being used for two different things.  I have
split off the second usage into 'old_sector' so that maxsector can be
still be used for it's primary usage later in the function.
