Subject: [PATCH v2 2/8] dma-direct: use DMA_ATTR_CC_SHARED in alloc/free paths
Date: Mon, 20 Apr 2026 11:44:09 +0530 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260420061415.3650870-3-aneesh.kumar@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260420061415.3650870-1-aneesh.kumar@kernel.org>
Propagate force_dma_unencrypted() into DMA_ATTR_CC_SHARED in the
dma-direct allocation path and use the attribute to drive the related
decisions.
This updates dma_direct_alloc(), dma_direct_free(), and
dma_direct_alloc_pages() to fold the forced unencrypted case into attrs.
