Subject: [PATCH] Revert "scsi: qla2xxx: Fix memcpy() field-spanning write issue"
Date: Thu, 25 Sep 2025 09:07:29 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250925130729.776904-1-jmeneghi@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <yq1zfajqpec.fsf@ca-mkp.ca.oracle.com>
This reverts commit 6f4b10226b6b1e7d1ff3cdb006cf0f6da6eed71e.
We've been testing this patch and it turns out there is a significant
bug here. This leaks memory and causes a driver hang.
