 "I'm sending a separate pull request for this as it may be somewhat
  controversial.  The breakage addressed here is not really new and the
  fixes may not satisfy all users of the affected systems, but we've had
  so much back and forth dance in this area over the last several weeks
  that I think it's time to actually make some progress.

  Three bug fixes for md in 3.10

  3.10 wasn't a good release for md.  The bio changes left a couple of
  bugs, and an md "fix" created another one.

  These three patches appear to fix the issues and have been tagged for

macvtap: do not zerocopy if iov needs more pages than MAX_SKB_FRAGS 2013-07-18T20:04:25+00:00 Jason Wang jasowang@redhat.com 2013-07-18T02:55:16+00:00 ece793fcfc417b3925844be88a6a6dc82ae8f7c6 We try to linearize part of the skb when the number of iov is greater than MAX_SKB_FRAGS. This is not enough since each single vector may occupy more than one pages, so zerocopy_sg_fromiovec() may still fail and may break the guest network. Solve this problem by calculate the pages needed for iov before trying to do zerocopy and switch to use copy instead of zerocopy if it needs more than MAX_SKB_FRAGS. This is done through introducing a new helper to count the pages for iov, and call uarg->callback() manually when switching from zerocopy to copy to notify vhost. We can do further optimization on top. This bug were introduced from b92946e2919134ebe2a4083e4302236295ea2a73 (macvtap: zerocopy: validate vectors before building skb). Cc: Michael S.
