Hi, This is fifth approach for replacing struct dma_attrs with unsigned long. The main patch (1/44) doing the change is split into many subpatches for easier review (2-42). They should be squashed together when applying. Rebased on v4.7-rc5. For easier testing the patchset is available here: repo: https://github.com/krzk/linux branch: for-next/dma-attrs-const-v5 Changes since v4 ================ 1. Collect some acks. Still need more. 2. Minor fixes pointed by Robin Murphy. 3. Applied changes from Bart Van Assche's comment. 4. More tests and builds (using https://www.kernel.org/pub/tools/crosstool/). Changes since v3 ================ 1. Collect some acks. 2. Drop wrong patch 1/45 ("powerpc: dma-mapping: Don't hard-code the value of DMA_ATTR_WEAK_ORDERING"). 3. Minor fix pointed out by Michael Ellerman. Changes since v2 ================ 1. Follow Christoph Hellwig's comments (don't use BIT add documentation, remove dma_get_attr). Rationale ========= The dma-mapping core and the implementations do not change the DMA attributes passed by pointer. Thus the pointer can point to const data. However the attributes do not have to be a bitfield. Instead unsigned long will do fine: 1. This is just simpler. Both in terms of reading the code and setting attributes. Instead of initializing local attributes on the stack and passing pointer to it to dma_set_attr(), just set the bits. 2. It brings safeness and checking for const correctness because the attributes are passed by value.
