[patch 2/2 -resend] iommu/amd: fix type bug in flush code

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

 



write_file_bool() modifies 32 bits of data, so "amd_iommu_unmap_flush"
needs to be 32 bits as well or we'll corrupt memory.  Fortunately it
looks like the data is aligned with a gap after the declaration so this
is harmless in production.

Originally sent on Fri, 2 Mar 2012.  This is the other patch where I
guess I was supposed to modify debugfs_create_bool() to take bool
pointers.
