Subject: dma_declare_coherent_memory on main memory
Date: Fri, 7 Dec 2018 16:34:32 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20181207153432.GA24917@lst.de> (raw)
Hi all,
the ARM imx27/31 ports and various sh boards use
dma_declare_coherent_memory on main memory taken from the memblock
allocator.
Is there any good reason these couldn't be switched to CMA areas?
Getting rid of these magic dma_declare_coherent_memory area would
help making the dma allocator a lot simpler.
