From: Mohamed Ghannam <simo.ghannam@xxxxxxxxx> This patch has been added to the 4.1 stable tree. If you have any objections, please let us know. =============== [ Upstream commit c095508770aebf1b9218e77026e48345d719b17c ] When args->nr_local is 0, nr_pages gets also 0 due some size calculation via rds_rm_size(), which is later used to allocate pages for DMA, this bug produces a heap Out-Of-Bound write access to a specific memory region.
