thanks for having a look

Any idea why that's happening? This fix seems ok but if we're expecting
allocation failures for the loaded magazine then we could easily get it
for cpu_rcaches too, and get a similar abort at runtime.

It's not specifically that we expect them (allocation failures for the loaded magazine), rather we should make safe against it.

So could you be more specific in your concern for the cpu_rcache failure? cpu_rcache magazine assignment comes from this logic.

Anyway, logic like "if not full" or "if not empty" is poor as the outcome for NULL is ambiguous (maybe there's a better word) and the code is not safe against it, and so I replace with "if space" or "if have an IOVA", respectively.

Thanks,
John

The issue is that expression !iova_magazine_full(NULL) evaluates true; this
falls over in __iova_rcache_insert() when we attempt to cache a mag and
cpu_rcache->loaded == NULL:

if (!iova_magazine_full(cpu_rcache->loaded)) {
can_insert = true;
...

if (can_insert)
iova_magazine_push(cpu_rcache->loaded, iova_pfn);

As above, can_insert is evaluated true, which it shouldn't be, and we try
to insert pfns in a NULL mag, which is not safe.

To avoid this, stop using double-negatives, like !iova_magazine_full() and
!iova_magazine_empty(), and use positive tests, like
iova_magazine_has_space() and iova_magazine_has_pfns(), respectively; these
can safely deal with cpu_rcache->{loaded, prev} = NULL.
