Hi Christoph I have started now to give a try to your patchset. Sorry for the delay. For uvc I have prepared this patch: https://github.com/ribalda/linux/commit/9094fe223fe38f8c8ff21366d893b43cbbdf0113 I have tested successfully in a x86_64 noteboot..., yes I know there is no change for that platform :). I am trying to get hold of an arm device that can run the latest kernel from upstream. On the meanwhile if you could take a look to the patch to verify that this the way that you expect the drivers to use your api I would appreciate it Thanks On Wed, Oct 14, 2020 at 3:20 PM Tomasz Figa <tfiga@xxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote: > > +CC Ricardo who will be looking into using this in the USB stack (UVC > camera driver). > > On Wed, Sep 30, 2020 at 6:09 PM Christoph Hellwig <hch@xxxxxx> wrote: > > > > Add a new API that returns a virtually non-contigous array of pages > > and dma address.
