From 16c59419a09f0140a07a1828d6a45656265e07c7 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Ralph Campbell Date: Mon, 17 Jul 2006 18:21:24 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] IB/ipath: ipath_skip_sge() can break if num_sge > 1 ipath_skip_sge() doesn't exactly duplicate the side effects of ipath_copy_sge() if num_sge > 1 since it doesn't decrement ss->num_sge. This could result in the sg_list being accessed out of bounds. Since ipath_skip_sge() is almost always called with num_sge == 1, the original "optimization" is almost never used.
