Subject: [PATCH 1/4] xen-blkback: workaround compiler bug in gcc 4.1
Date: Fri, 21 Jun 2013 12:56:53 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1371812216-17093-2-git-send-email-roger.pau@citrix.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1371812216-17093-1-git-send-email-roger.pau@citrix.com>

The code generat with gcc (GCC) 4.1.2 20080704 (Red Hat 4.1.2-54)
creates an unbound loop for the second foreach_grant_safe loop in
purge_persistent_gnt.

The workaround is to avoid having this second loop and instead
perform all the work inside the first loop by adding a new variable,
clean_used, that will be set when all the desired persistent grants
have been removed and we need to iterate over the remaining ones to
remove the WAS_ACTIVE flag.
