Dma-kmalloc will be created as long as CONFIG_ZONE_DMA is enabled.
However, it will fail if DMA zone has no managed pages. The failure
can be seen in kdump kernel of x86_64 as below:
Please just switch the sr allocation to use GFP_KERNEL without GFP_DMA.
The block layer will do the proper bounce buffering underneath for the
very unlikely case that we're actually using the single HBA driver that
has ISA DMA addressing limitations.
Same for the ch drive, btw.
Hi,
Is CONFIG_ZONE_DMA even needed anymore in x86_64 ?
