Subject: [PATCH v4 1/6] resources: ensure alignment callback doesn't allocate below available start
Date: Thu, 14 Oct 2010 17:18:26 -0600	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20101014231826.536.51757.stgit@bob.kio> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20101014231804.536.62138.stgit@bob.kio>


The alignment callback returns a proposed location, which may have been
adjusted to avoid ISA aliases or for other architecture-specific reasons.
We already had a check ("tmp.start < tmp.end") to make sure the callback
doesn't return a location above the available area.

This patch adds a check to make sure the callback doesn't return something
*below* the available area, as may happen if the callback tries to allocate
top-down.
