Subject: [stable patch 2.6.20 1/3] Missing critical phys_to_virt in lib/swiotlb.c
Date: Sat, 10 Feb 2007 00:40:17 +0100 (CET) [thread overview]
Message-ID: <tkrat.3758c666718465a8@s5r6.in-berlin.de> (raw)
Date: Sun, 04 Feb 2007 13:39:40 -0500
From: David Moore <dcm@acm.org>
Adds missing call to phys_to_virt() in the
lib/swiotlb.c:swiotlb_sync_sg() function. Without this change, a kernel
panic will always occur whenever a SWIOTLB bounce buffer from a
scatter-gather list gets synced.

This is a fraction of patch "[IA64] swiotlb bug fixes" in 2.6.20-git#,
commit cde14bbfb3aa79b479db35bd29e6c083513d8614. Unlike its heading
suggests, it is also important for EM64T.
Example crashes caused by swiotlb_sync_sg:
