[PATCH rdma-next v1 1/2] lib/scatterlist: Fix wrong update of orig_nents

From: Leon Romanovsky
Date: Tue Jun 29 2021 - 04:40:24 EST


From: Maor Gottlieb <maorg@xxxxxxxxxx>

orig_nents should represent the number of entries with pages,
but __sg_alloc_table_from_pages sets orig_nents as the number of
total entries in the table. This is wrong when the API is used for
dynamic allocation where not all the table entries are mapped with
pages. It wasn't observed until now, since RDMA umem who uses this
API in the dynamic form doesn't use orig_nents implicit or explicit
by the scatterlist APIs.

Fix it by:
1. Set orig_nents as number of entries with pages also in
__sg_alloc_table_from_pages.
2. Add a new field total_nents to reflect the total number of entries
in the table. This is required for the release flow (sg_free_table).
This filed should be used internally only by scatterlist.

Fixes: 07da1223ec93 ("lib/scatterlist: Add support in dynamic allocation of SG table from pages")
