From c47206e25f28232ff979994c32758c82841d81cd Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Roger Pau Monne Date: Mon, 12 Aug 2013 12:53:43 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] xen-blkfront: improve aproximation of required grants per request MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=utf8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Improve the calculation of required grants to process a request by using nr_phys_segments instead of always assuming a request is going to use all posible segments. nr_phys_segments contains the number of scatter-gather DMA addr+len pairs, which is basically what we put at every granted page. for_each_sg iterates over the DMA addr+len pairs and uses a grant page for each of them.
