Subject: [PATCHv2 3/3] dm-crypt: dynamic scatterlist for many segments
Date: Wed, 14 Jan 2026 07:41:13 -0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260114154113.3207790-4-kbusch@meta.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260114154113.3207790-1-kbusch@meta.com>
From: Keith Busch <kbusch@kernel.org>
In the unlikely case where the base bio uses a highly fragmented vector,
the four inline scatterlist elements may not be enough, so allocate a
temporary scatterlist for the cause.
