Subject: [patch 15/16] x86_64: When checking vmalloc mappings don't use pte_page
Date: Mon, 23 May 2005 16:31:36 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20050523233136.GA27549@shell0.pdx.osdl.net> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20050523231529.GL27549@shell0.pdx.osdl.net>

[PATCH] x86_64: When checking vmalloc mappings don't use pte_page

The PTEs can point to ioremap mappings too, and these are often outside
mem_map.  The NUMA hash page lookup functions cannot handle out of bounds
accesses properly.
