You are suggesting we write: size = PAGE_ALIGN(size); BUG_ON(size & ~PAGE_MASK); If you want to change something remove the BUG_ON, do the rounding and update all callers to not worry about page alignment. Tell me how many call sites require alteration? It seems to be an almost universal assumption that the size is page-aligned (despite my own attempts to get subpage allocations into the ABI). -Chris -- Chris Wilson, Intel Open Source Technology Centre _______________________________________________ Intel-gfx mailing list Intel-gfx@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/intel-gfx
