[PATCH v3 09/10] dmapool: debug: prevent endless loop in case of corruption

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

 



Prevent a possible endless loop with DMAPOOL_DEBUG enabled if a buggy
driver corrupts DMA pool memory.

Changes since v2:
This is closer to the improved version from "dmapool: reduce footprint
in struct page" in v2 thanks to a previous patch adding blks_per_alloc.
