Public bug reported: Description: qeth: use vzalloc for QUERY OAT buffer
Symptom: qethqoat tool fails. Problem: qeth_query_oat_command() currently allocates the kernel buffer for the SIOC_QETH_QUERY_OAT ioctl with kzalloc. Solution: Using vzalloc() instead of kzalloc(), backing the allocation with non-contiguous memory. Commit -ID: aec45e857c5538664edb76a60dd452e3265f37d1 kernel 4.19. To be fixed for 18.10, 18,04 and 16.04. ** Affects: ubuntu-z-systems Importance: High Assignee: Canonical Kernel Team (canonical-kernel-team) Status: Triaged ** Affects: linux (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Assignee: Skipper Bug Screeners (skipper-screen-team) Status: New ** Tags: architecture-s39064 bugnameltc-171548 severity-high targetmilestone-inin1810 ** Tags added: architecture-s39064 bugnameltc-171548 severity-high targetmilestone-inin1810 ** Changed in: ubuntu Assignee: (unassigned) => Skipper Bug Screeners (skipper-screen-team) ** Package changed: ubuntu => linux (Ubuntu) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1793086 Title: qeth: use vzalloc for QUERY OAT buffer To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-z-systems/+bug/1793086/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
