Subject: [PATCH] Missing critical phys_to_virt in lib/swiotlb.c From: David Moore <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Date: Sun, 04 Feb 2007 13:39:40 -0500
From: David Moore <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Adds missing call to phys_to_virt() in the lib/swiotlb.c:swiotlb_sync_sg() function. Without this change, a kernel panic will always occur whenever a SWIOTLB bounce buffer from a scatter-gather list gets synced. Signed-off-by: David Moore <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Signed-off-by: Stefan Richter <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> --- This is a fraction of patch "[IA64] swiotlb bug fixes" in 2.6.20-git#, commit cde14bbfb3aa79b479db35bd29e6c083513d8614. Unlike its heading suggests, it is also important for EM64T.
