This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled dm integrity: don't store cipher request on the stack to the 4.14-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: dm-integrity-don-t-store-cipher-request-on-the-stack.patch and it can be found in the queue-4.14 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. >From 717f4b1c52135f279112df82583e0c77e80f90de Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Mikulas Patocka <mpatocka@xxxxxxxxxx> Date: Wed, 10 Jan 2018 09:32:47 -0500 Subject: dm integrity: don't store cipher request on the stack From: Mikulas Patocka <mpatocka@xxxxxxxxxx> commit 717f4b1c52135f279112df82583e0c77e80f90de upstream. Some asynchronous cipher implementations may use DMA. The stack may be mapped in the vmalloc area that doesn't support DMA. Therefore, the cipher request and initialization vector shouldn't be on the stack. Fix this by allocating the request and iv with kmalloc.
