I tried doing that, and I gave up because: - It made cma_alloc() even more complex and hard to follow. - What value should 'start_pfn' be to tell cma_alloc() that it should be ignored? Or, to put it another way, what pfn number is invalid on **all** platforms that Linux supports? I can give it another go if we can come up with an invalid value for 'start_pfn'. > > But then I am wondering why this could not be done in the arm64 platform > code itself operating on a CMA area reserved just for tag storage.

I had the same idea in the previous iteration, David Hildenbrand suggested this approach [1].
