This is a note to let you know that I have just added a patch titled target/file: Fix 32-bit highmem breakage for SGL -> iovec to the linux-3.5.y-queue branch of the 3.5.y.z extended stable tree which can be found at: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/git?p=ubuntu/linux.git;a=shortlog;h=refs/heads/linux-3.5.y-queue If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to this tree, please reply to this email. For more information about the 3.5.y.z tree, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/Dev/ExtendedStable Thanks. -Herton ------ From 5a5f3f17e9f6439f3e521846842382a3310471d5 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Sebastian Andrzej Siewior <bigeasy@linutronix.de> Date: Wed, 5 Dec 2012 12:08:29 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] target/file: Fix 32-bit highmem breakage for SGL -> iovec mapping commit 40ff2c3b3da35dd3a00ac6722056a59b4b3f2caf upstream. This patch changes vectored file I/O to use kmap + kunmap when mapping incoming SGL memory -> struct iovec in order to properly support 32-bit highmem configurations. This is because an extra bounce buffer may be required when processing scatterlist pages allocated with GFP_KERNEL.
