Subject: [RFC PATCH v2 2/5] dma-pool: allow user to disable atomic pool
Date: Tue, 10 Aug 2021 17:48:32 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20210810094835.13402-3-bhe@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20210810094835.13402-1-bhe@redhat.com>

In the current code, three atomic memory pools are always created,
atomic_pool_kernel|dma|dma32, even though 'coherent_pool=0' is
specified in kernel command line. In fact, atomic pool is only
necessary when CONFIG_DMA_DIRECT_REMAP=y or mem_encrypt_active=y
which are needed on few ARCHes.

So change code to allow user to disable atomic pool by specifying
'coherent_pool=0'.

Meanwhile, update the relevant document in kernel-parameter.txt.
