From: Mark Haverkamp <markh@osdl.org> About three weeks ago markw at osdl posted a mail about a panic that he was seeing: http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-kernel&m=106737176716474&w=2 I believe what is happening, is that the dm __clone_and_map function is generating bio structures with the bi_idx field non-zero. When __blk_queue_bounce creates a new bio with bounce pages, it sets the bi_idx field to 0 rather than the bi_idx of the original. This causes trouble since bv_page pointers will be dereferenced later that are zero. The following uses the original bio structure's bi_idx in the new bio structure and in copy_to_high_bio_irq and bounce_end_io. This has cleared up the panic when using the volume.
