Subject: FAILED: patch "[PATCH] iommu/dma: Catch scatterlist length overflows" failed to apply to 5.10-stable tree
Date: Sat,  7 Nov 2026 06:20:22 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261107062022-failed-5.10-1c8f6308e557@kernel.org> (raw)

The patch below does not apply to the 5.10-stable tree.
If someone wants it applied there, or to any other stable or longterm
tree, then please email the backport, including the original git commit
id to <stable@vger.kernel.org>.

To reproduce the conflict and resubmit, you may use the following commands:

git fetch https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git/ linux-5.10.y
git checkout FETCH_HEAD
git cherry-pick -x 1c8f6308e557f32412e9d4678b3f029f47f6d9aa
# <resolve conflicts, build, test, etc.>
git commit -s

Subject: [PATCH] iommu/dma: Catch scatterlist length overflows

It is possible, when a very large mapping uses only one
scatterlist, that padding overflows scatterlist's length field.
This results in:
 1) silently wrapping the value
 2) smaller than desired mappings produced by iommu_map_sg
 3) leaving mapped bytes in memory (no iommu_unmap)

Address this issue by adding overflow detection for scatterlist
length field.
