[PATCH] qla2xxx: Correct late-memset() of EFT buffer.

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

 



Original code would clear the buffer after the firmware had
already been initialized to use the buffer, thus potentially
and inadvertantly clearing data previously DMA'd by the
firmware.
