[PATCH] dmaengine: rcar-dmac: Handle hardware descriptor allocation failure

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



If the atomic DMA coherent pool is too small, disable use of hardware
descriptor lists instead of crashing the system:

ERROR: 256 KiB atomic DMA coherent pool is too small!
Please increase it with coherent_pool= kernel parameter!

Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 00000004
Internal error: Oops: a07 [#1] PREEMPT SMP ARM

PC is at rcar_dmac_chan_reinit+0x3c/0x160
LR is at _raw_spin_lock_irqsave+0x18/0x5c
