Subject: [PATCH] avoid endless loops in lib/swiotlb.c
Date: Thu, 13 Mar 2008 09:13:30 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <47D8FE4A.76E4.0078.0@novell.com> (raw)

Commit 681cc5cd3efbeafca6386114070e0bfb5012e249 introduced two
possibilities for entering an endless loop in lib/swiotlb.c:

- if max_slots is zero (possible if mask is ~0UL)
- if the number of slots requested fits into a swiotlb segment, but is
  too large for the part of a segment which remains after considering
  offset_slots
