We have noticed a patchset which ensures that dma_alloc_coherent() always returns zeroed memory. The url of this patchset is listed as below: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20181214082515.14835-1-hch@xxxxxx/T/#m70c723c646004445713f31b7837f7e9d910c06f5 Besides, you may refer to commit 518a2f1925c3 ("dma-mapping: zero memory returned from dma_alloc_*") for details. This commit zeros memory by passing __GFP_ZERO flag or calling memset internally. For example, the dma_alloc_direct() interface calls memset() to zero the allocated memory.
