[PATCH 4.8 069/138] KVM: s390: Fix STHYI buffer alignment for diag224

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

 



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

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

From: Janosch Frank <frankja@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit 45c7ee43a5184ddbff652ee0d2e826f86f1b616b upstream.

Diag224 requires a page-aligned 4k buffer to store the name table
into. kmalloc does not guarantee page alignment, hence we replace it
with __get_free_page for the buffer allocation.
