Description Neil Horman 2005-06-27 11:57:15 UTC
Description of problem:
the GET_INDEX macro in arch/i386/pci/fixup.c fails to only use the lower 3 bits
of a pci devices devfn value.  As such, certain pcidevices with a sufficiently
large bus/device/function tuple can index too far into the quirk_aspm_offset
array, overwriting parts of memory

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
RHEL4, all versions

How reproducible:
Unknown

Steps to Reproduce:
1.
2.
3.
  
Actual results:
memory which is allocated immediately after the quirk_aspm_offset array can
become corrupted

Expected results:
No memory corruption
