Subject: [RFC PATCH V2]  Disable Bus Master bit on PCI device shutdown
Date: Thu, 26 Apr 2012 12:30:42 -0600	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1335465042.13081.22.camel@lyra> (raw)

Eric suggested I disable bus master bit in PCI susbsystem instead
and that makes perfect sense. So here is take 2 on this patch. Please
review and let me know if I missed anything.


Subject: [PATCH] Disable Bus Master bit on the device in
 pci_device_shutdown() to ensure PCI devices do not continue
 to DMA data after shutdown. This can cause memory
 corruption in case of a kexec where the current kernel
 shuts down and transfers control to a new kernel while a
 PCI device continues to DMA to memory that does not belong
 to it any more in the new kernel.
