From a2ef79e1840ebbd0b5907e53c755efd5662112a1 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Alexandre Oliva Date: Wed, 15 Jun 2005 22:26:31 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] [PATCH] sbp2 slab corruption fix This fixed a problem that showed up in the Fedora development tree a few weeks before the Fedora Core 4 release, initially as slab corruption, later as hard crashes on boot up, when slab debugging was disabled for the release. More details on the history at https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=158424 The problem is caused by sbp2's use of scsi_host->hostdata[0] to hold a scsi_id, without explicitly requesting space for it. Since hostdata is declared as a zero-sized array, we don't get any such space by default, so it must be explicitly requested. The patch below implements just that.
