Subject: [RFc] Map CMA pages as cached
Date: Fri, 13 Jul 2012 11:01:45 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1342202506-12449-1-git-send-email-lauraa@codeaurora.org> (raw)

Current APIs only support allocating CMA pages as either coherent or
writecombine. This seems to miss support for cached pages completely.
The following patch seems to be the first obvious solution.

More generally though, what should be the strategy for remapping with
other memory types? Add a new function call each time?

Thanks,
Laura
