That's very odd. Do you use MMAP or USERPTR buffers btw.? I remember the cache was different on 3430, that could be an issue as well (VIVT AFAIR, so flushing requires making sure there are no other mappings or flushing the entire cache). > > > Anyway, I have to start somewhere, and I believe this is a good > > > starting place; I'd like to get the code cleaned up and merged, then > > > move to the next parts. > > > > I wonder if something else could be the problem.

Which is why it'd be very nice to have the DT content, too. -- Kind regards, Sakari Ailus e-mail: sakari.ailus@xxxxxx XMPP: sailus@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-media" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
