[PATCH 4.6 010/203] IB/core: Fix bit curruption in ib_device_cap_flags structure

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

 



4.6-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Max Gurtovoy <maxg@xxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit 47355b3cd7d3c9c5226bff7c449b9d269fb17fa6 upstream.

ib_device_cap_flags 64-bit expansion caused caps overlapping
and made consumers read wrong device capabilities. For example
IB_DEVICE_SG_GAPS_REG was falsely read by the iser driver causing
it to use a non-existing capability. This happened because signed
int becomes sign extended when converted it to u64. Fix this by
casting IB_DEVICE_ON_DEMAND_PAGING enumeration to ULL.
