[V2][PATCH] asm-generic: sections: refactor memory_intersects

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

 



From: Quanyang Wang <quanyang.wang@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

There are two problems with the current code of memory_intersects:

First, it doesn't check whether the region (begin, end) falls inside
the region (virt, vend), that is (virt < begin && vend > end).

The second problem is if vend is equal to begin, it will return true
but this is wrong since vend (virt + size) is not the last address of
the memory region but (virt + size -1) is. The wrong determination will
trigger the misreporting when the function check_for_illegal_area calls
memory_intersects to check if the dma region intersects with stext region.

The misreporting is as below (stext is at 0x80100000):
 WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 77 at kernel/dma/debug.c:1073 check_for_illegal_area+0x130/0x168

Refactor memory_intersects to fix the two problems above.

Add the consideration of the condition that one falls inside another
which is noticed by Ard.
