Subject: [PATCH net] macvtap: fix recovery from gup errors
Date: Sun, 23 Jun 2013 17:26:58 +0300 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20130623142658.GA21141@redhat.com> (raw)
get user pages might fail partially in macvtap zero copy
mode. To recover we need to put all pages that we got,
but code used a wrong index resulting in double-free
errors.

Same as the tun patch really. Also stable material.
