[RFC PATCH 04/28] block: Never bounce dma-direct bios

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

 



It is expected the creator of the dma-direct bio will ensure the
target device can access the DMA address it's creating bios for.
It's also not possible to bounce a dma-direct bio seeing the block
layer doesn't have any way to access the underlying data behind
the DMA address.

Thus, never bounce dma-direct bios.
