Subject: [PATCH] Initialise scatter/gather list in ata_sg_setup
Date: Thu, 25 Oct 2007 14:32:26 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20071025193226.GA20459@kryten> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20071025192959.GA5827@kryten>
(Sorry the subject was incorrect)...
After turning on DEBUG_SG I hit a fail:
kernel BUG at include/linux/scatterlist.h:50!
ata_qc_issue
ata_scsi_translate
ipr_queuecommand
scsi_dispatch_cmd
scsi_request_fn
elv_insert
blk_execute_rq_nowait
blk_execute_rq
sg_io
scsi_cmd_ioctl
cdrom_ioctl
sr_block_ioctl
blkdev_driver_ioctl
blkdev_ioctl
block_ioctl
do_ioctl
vfs_ioctl
sys_ioctl
sg_ioctl_trans
It looks like ata_sg_setup is working on an uninitialised sg table. Call
sg_init_table to initialise it before use.

Jens this is against your sg branch. This fixes the fail but Id
appreciate a confirmation that it's the right fix :)
