[PATCH] parisc: fix a possible DMA corruption

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

 



ARCH_DMA_MINALIGN was defined as 16 - this is too small - it may be 
possible that two unrelated 16-byte allocations share a cache line. If one 
of these allocations is written using DMA and the other is written using 
cached write, the value that was written with DMA may be corrupted.

This commit changes ARCH_DMA_MINALIGN to be 128 - that's the largest 
possible cache line size on parisc.

As different parisc microarchitectures have different cache line size, we 
define arch_slab_minalign(), cache_line_size() and 
dma_get_cache_alignment() so that the kernel may tune slab cache 
parameters dynamically, based on the detected cache line size.
