Subject: [PATCH v2 00/15] fix DMA aligment issues around virtio
Date: Mon, 5 Jan 2026 03:22:50 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <cover.1767601130.git.mst@redhat.com> (raw)
Cong Wang reported dma debug warnings with virtio-vsock
and proposed a patch, see:
https://lore.kernel.org/all/20251228015451.1253271-1-xiyou.wangcong@gmail.com/
however, the issue is more widespread.
This is an attempt to fix it systematically.
Note: i2c and gio might also be affected, I am still looking
into it. Help from maintainers welcome.
Lightly tested. Cursor/claude used liberally, mostly for
refactoring/API updates/English.
DMA maintainers, could you please confirm the DMA core changes
are ok with you?
Thanks!
