[PATCH v2 1/5] drm: Add and export function drm_gem_cma_create_noncoherent

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

 



This function can be used by drivers that need to create a GEM object
with non-coherent backing memory.

Creating non-coherent CMA objects is useful on architectures where
writing to a buffer with the non-coherent cache attribute set then
invalidating the cache is faster than writing to the same buffer with
the write-combine cache attribute set. This is the case for instance on
some Ingenic SoCs.

v2: Add inline doc about why we need this, and improve commit message
