Subject: [patch] iommu/amd: fix type bug in flush code
Date: Fri, 02 Mar 2012 06:59:19 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20120302065919.GF24508@elgon.mountain> (raw)
write_file_bool() modifies 32 bits of data, so "amd_iommu_unmap_flush"
needs to be 32 bits as well or we'll corrupt memory. Fortunately it
looks like the data is aligned with a gap after the declaration so this
is harmless in production.
