[Patch] bte_copy of BTE_MAX_XFER trips BUG_ON -V2

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

 



BTE_MAX_XFER is wrong.  It is one greater than the number of cache
lines the BTE is actually able to transfer.  If you request a transfer
of exactly BTE_MAX_XFER size, you trip a very cryptic BUG_ON() which
should certainly be made more clear.

This patch fixes that constant and also cleans up the BUG_ON()s in
arch/ia64/sn/kernel/bte.c to test one condition per line.

Changes since -V1:
	Base the BTE_LEN_MASK upon a 1UL instead of 1 for correctness.
