Subject: [PATCH 3/3] videobuf2-core.h: Document the alloc memop size argument as page aligned
Date: Thu, 13 Dec 2018 12:40:06 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20181213104006.401-4-sakari.ailus@linux.intel.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20181213104006.401-1-sakari.ailus@linux.intel.com>
The size argument of the alloc memop, which allocates buffer memory, is
page aligned. Document it as such, as code elsewhere has not taken this
into account.
