Subject: [PATCH v2 2/2] ntb_hw_switchtec: Check for alignment of the buffer in mw_set_trans()
Date: Mon, 18 Dec 2017 11:25:06 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20171218182506.5219-2-logang@deltatee.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20171218182506.5219-1-logang@deltatee.com>

With Switchtec hardware, the buffer used for a memory window must be
aligned to its size (the hardware only replaces the lower bits). In
certain circumstances dma_alloc_coherent() will not provide a buffer
that adheres to this requirement like when using the CMA and
CONFIG_CMA_ALIGNMENT is set lower than the buffer size.

When we get an unaligned buffer mw_set_trans() should return an error.
We also log an error so we know the cause of the problem.

v2: Use IS_ALIGNED macro as suggested by Allen
