Looking at the code i'm not sure if i understand it correctly. pgoff = sg->offset & ~PAGE_MASK; this gets the offset past the start of page. sg->dma_address = ((dma_addr_t)iov_pfn << VTD_PAGE_SHIFT) + pgoff; this would set dma_address at b+off instead of starting at c+off correct? > > Robin > > [1]:https://lists.linuxfoundation.org/pipermail/iommu/2017-September/024371.html
