Subject: [PATCH 1/8] scatterlist: make sure sg_miter_next() doesn't return 0 sized mappings
Date: Wed, 1 Apr 2009 20:04:37 +0900 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1238583884-13517-2-git-send-email-tj@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1238583884-13517-1-git-send-email-tj@kernel.org>
Impact: fix not-so-critical but annoying bug
sg_miter_next() returns 0 sized mapping if there is an zero sized sg
entry in the list or at the end of each iteration. As the users
always check the ->length field, this bug shouldn't be critical other
than causing unnecessary iteration.
Fix it.
