Subject: [PATCH] aic7xxx driver. Restrict DMA to 32bit for 29320LPE Adaptec SCSI controller Contribution: Anil Ravindranath <anil_ravindranath@xxxxxxxxxxx> Issue: Data Bursts that cross from 32- to 64-Bit address space have incorrect address for 29320LPE. This leads to potential data corruption. Fix: Restrict DMA to 32bit so that it does not cross 4GB boundary. Change Log: Restrict DMA to 32bit for 29320LPE so that it does not cross 4GB boundary Patch: apply to scsi-misc-2.6.git development tree Signed off By: Anil Ravindranath <anil_ravindranath@xxxxxxxxxxx> diff -urN a/drivers/scsi/aic7xxx/aic79xx_osm_pci.c b/drivers/scsi/aic7xxx/aic79xx_osm_pci.c --- a/drivers/scsi/aic7xxx/aic79xx_osm_pci.c 2007-06-30 05:24:08.000000000 -0700 +++ b/drivers/scsi/aic7xxx/aic79xx_osm_pci.c 2007-06-30 05:25:40.000000000 -0700 @@ -161,7 +161,10 @@ } pci_set_master(pdev); - if (sizeof(dma_addr_t) > 4) { + /* + * Restrict DMA to 32bit for 29320LPE + */ + if ((sizeof(dma_addr_t) > 4) && (entry->full_id != ID_AHA_29320LPE)) { const u64 required_mask = dma_get_required_mask(dev); if (required_mask > DMA_39BIT_MASK && diffstat output: aic79xx_osm_pci.c | 5 ++++- 1 files changed, 4 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) With regards, Anil - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-scsi" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
