From 5df4223a444057e433e9e4f2e101ee7159f8c19d Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Ralph Campbell Date: Thu, 17 Jun 2010 23:13:59 +0000 Subject: IB/qib: Clear eager buffer memory for each new process The eager buffers are not being cleared before being mmapped into a new user address space. This is a potential security risk and should be fixed. Note that the eager header queue is already being cleared.
