[PATCH 3/4] mci: core: remove broken, unneeded write bounce buffer

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

 



mci_block_write uses a 512-byte long bounce buffer if the src argument
is not 4-byte aligned. This can never happen as src is the address of a
block cache chunk, which is always aligned for DMA, which is always a
multiple of 4 bytes. Furthermore, the bounce buffer is just a single
sector and the function may write multiple blocks resulting in
out-of-bounds read if that code hadn't been dead.
