| looking at the debug output i got from Harsh it still looks like a bug in
| the code.
|
| [  538.284589] __domain_mapping nr_pages 0x1
| [ 538.284600] __domain_mapping sg_res 0x1 sg->dma_address 0xf291000e dma len
| 0x38 pteval 0x3cbce3003 phys_pfn 0x3cbce3
| [ 538.284604] chelsio driver - offset 4110 len 56 dma addr f291000e dma len

| [  538.284667] DMAR: DRHD: handling fault status reg 2
| [ 538.290017] DMAR: [DMA Write] Request device [02:00.4] fault addr f2910000
| [fault reason 05] PTE Write access is not set
|
| somehow when crypto_authenc_encrypt() -> scatterwalk_ffwd()-> sg_set_page()
|
| ->sg_set_page(dst, sg_page(src), src->length - len, src->offset + len);
|
| src->offset + len gets set as sg->offset in sg_set_page(). Either the
| assumption that there should be room is incorrect, or some higher order
| crypto
| code that ends up setting the offset did the wrong calculation.
|
| if src->offset is already towards the end of the page, then offset+len will
| go beyond the end of page.

  Hhmmm, it seems like we need Herbert to comment on this.

  Herbert, is there any specific debugging information that you'd like to
see here?
