CVS commit: src/sys/arch/xen/xen



Module Name:    src
Committed By:   jym
Date:           Wed Aug 24 20:49:34 UTC 2011

Modified Files:
        src/sys/arch/xen/xen: xbdback_xenbus.c

Log Message:
Protect xbdback(4) ring indexes from overflowing; leave the continuation
prematurely in case they do, to avoid looping "endlessly" (or at least
a very long time) at IPL_BIO while trying to handle requests.

This should not happen in a nominal scenario, but the ring can get
corrupted for whatever reason (memory errors, domU failures or
exploitation).
