Subject: [PATCH] ALSA: pcm: Enable MMAP status and control for ARMv7 and ARMv8
Date: Wed, 17 Apr 2019 10:46:11 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1555490771-13242-1-git-send-email-twischer@de.adit-jv.com> (raw)

From: Timo Wischer <twischer@de.adit-jv.com>

Since ARMv7 hardware cache coherence is supported.
"The SCU maintains coherency between the individual data caches in the
Cortex-A5 MPCore processor using a variation of the MOESI protocol" [1].

Therefore this patch enables the MMAP access to the status and control
structures. This avoids HWSYYNC ioctl calls and therefore lowers the CPU
usage.
