[PATCH] st: don't doublefree pages from scatterlist

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

 



On some architectures, mapping the scatterlist may coalesce entries:
if that coalesced list is then used for freeing the pages afterwards,
there's a danger that pages may be doubly freed (and others leaked).

Fix SCSI Tape's sgl_unmap_user_pages by freeing from the pagelist used
in sgl_map_user_pages.  Fixes Ryan Richter's crash on x86_64, with Bad
page state mapcount 2 from sgl_unmap_user_pages, and consequent mayhem.

But it's quite confusing for st's (un)map_user_pages to be named sgl_,
with sg's named st_: while we're changing its arg, rename st's to
st_map_user_pages and st_unmap_user_pages (and do sg's separately).
