[PATCH v4] virtio_blk: Fix an SG_IO regression

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

 



Avoid that submitting an SG_IO ioctl triggers a kernel oops that
is preceded by:

usercopy: kernel memory overwrite attempt detected to (null) (<null>) (6 bytes)
kernel BUG at mm/usercopy.c:72!

Reported-by: Dann Frazier <dann.frazier@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>
Fixes: commit ca18d6f769d2 ("block: Make most scsi_req_init() calls implicit")
