Subject: [PATCH] Fix up xfs_buf_associate_memory()
Date: Fri, 23 Nov 2007 15:29:06 +1100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <47465712.1050000@sgi.com> (raw)

[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 654 bytes --]

Fixed a few bugs in xfs_buf_associate_memory() including:

- calculation of 'page_count' was incorrect as it did not
   consider the offset of 'mem' into the first page.  The
   logic to bump 'page_count' didn't work if 'len' was <=
   PAGE_CACHE_SIZE (ie offset = 3k, len = 2k).
- setting b_buffer_length to 'len' is incorrect if
   'offset' is > 0.  Set it to the total length of the
   buffer.
- I suspect that passing a non-aligned address into
   mem_to_page() for the first page may have been causing
   issues - don't know but just tidy up that code anyway.

These fixes prevent an data corruption issue that can
occur during log replay.
