I see. My patch is a bit simpler - it doesn't allocate the structure skge_element on the stack.Both patches don't behave exactly the same wrt pci_unmap_single. -- Ueimor
I see, my patch passes a wrong value to pci_unmap_single. So I made this change to make it pass the correct value. Do you agree with this patch? --- skge: fix invalid value passed to pci_unmap_sigle In my patch c194992cbe71c20bb3623a566af8d11b0bfaa721 I didn't fix the skge bug correctly. The value of the new mapping (not old) was passed to pci_unmap_single. If we enable CONFIG_DMA_API_DEBUG, it results in this warning: WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 0 at lib/dma-debug.c:986 check_sync+0x4c4/0x580() skge 0000:02:07.0: DMA-API: device driver tries to sync DMA memory it has not allocated [device address=0x000000023a0096c0] [size=1536 bytes] This patch makes the skge driver pass the correct value to pci_unmap_single and fixes the warning. It copies the old descriptor to on-stack variable "ee" and unmaps it if mapping of the new descriptor succeeded. This patch should be backported to 3.11-stable.
