[PATCH v2] IB/hfi1: Fix sdma.h tx->num_descs off-by-one error (take two)

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

 



Unfortunately the commit `fd8958efe877` introduced another error
causing the `descs` array to overflow. This reults in further crashes
easily reproducible by `sendmsg` system call.

}

If an SDMA send consists of exactly 6 descriptors and requires dword
padding (in the 7th descriptor), the sdma_txreq descriptor array
is not properly expanded and the packet will overflow into the
container structure. This results in a panic when the send completion
runs. The exact panic varies depending on what elements of the
container structure get corrupted. The fix is to use the correct
expression in _pad_sdma_tx_descs() to test the need to expand the
descriptor array.

With this patch the crashes are no longer reproducible and the machine is stable.
