Package: linux-image-2.6.32-3-amd64 Version: -9 Severity: normal Tags: patch
I noticed that the debian 2.6.32 kernel does not contain commit 2ae8bb75db1f3de422eb5898f2a063c46c36dba8 from the upstream linux-2.6-stable branch (since 2.6.32.2). Since the fix is trivial, and this particular bug hits me I would be grateful if you could apply the patch to the Debian kernel. commit 2ae8bb75db1f3de422eb5898f2a063c46c36dba8 Author: Tejun Heo <[email protected]> Date: Mon Oct 26 15:41:46 2009 +0100 x86: Fix iommu=nodac parameter handling iommu=nodac should forbid dac instead of enabling it. Fix it.
