Subject: [PATCH 3/8] xen/blkfront: don't take local copy of a request from the ring page
Date:   Thu, 13 May 2021 12:02:57 +0200
Message-Id: <20210513100302.22027-4-jgross@suse.com>
In-Reply-To: <20210513100302.22027-1-jgross@suse.com>
References: <20210513100302.22027-1-jgross@suse.com>
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit
Precedence: bulk

In order to avoid a malicious backend being able to influence the local
copy of a request build the request locally first and then copy it to
the ring page instead of doing it the other way round as today.
