Subject: [PATCH v3 2/4] dma: swiotlb: Centralize minimal pool sizing
Date: Fri, 4 Sep 2026 15:48:08 +0530 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260904101810.1193505-3-aneesh.kumar@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260904101810.1193505-1-aneesh.kumar@kernel.org>
A default SWIOTLB pool used only for unaligned kmalloc bouncing can be
smaller than one required for limited DMA addressing. Arm64 and RISC-V
currently implement this sizing independently, using 1 MiB of SWIOTLB
space per GiB of RAM.
The SWIOTLB core now identifies this case with SWIOTLB_POOL_MINIMAL.
Size that policy in swiotlb_adjust_pool_size() and remove the
architecture-specific adjustments.
Explicit swiotlb= sizing remains unchanged because swiotlb_adjust_size()
preserves a user-configured size.
NOTE: We lose the RISC-V SWIOTLB_ANY setting in this patch. It will be
reinstated in a follow-up patch where we make SWIOTLB_ANY redundant.
