Is there any reason this cannot be done in vb2-dma-contig.c itself? If there is no iommu, then this does nothing, and if there is one, don't you always need it? Requiring drivers to set this fairly obscure setting is asking for problems. This is guaranteed to be forgotten. As Lars-Peter said, ideally this is done by the DMA provider, but apparently that is (for now at least) a no-go. But the next best thing is vb2 IMHO. I gather that this is specific to userptr mode, so placing this code in vb2_dc_get_userptr() would make sense. You can even check the size here and do nothing if it is < 64 kB. Note sure if that is useful, though. Don't put it in vb2_dma_contig_init_ctx though as I am trying to get rid of that: http://www.mail-archive.com/linux-media@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/msg96741.html Regards, Hans -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-samsung-soc" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
