[PATCH v6 05/17] drivers/base: Use ARCH_DMA_MINALIGN instead of ARCH_KMALLOC_MINALIGN

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



ARCH_DMA_MINALIGN represents the minimum (static) alignment for safe DMA
operations while ARCH_KMALLOC_MINALIGN is the minimum kmalloc() objects
alignment.
