[PATCH v2] ARM: exynos_defconfig: increase CONFIG_CMA_SIZE_MBYTES to 96

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

 



Current CMA size of 64 Mbytes is right on the edge of being small when
several drivers need to allocate large CMA buffers.

For example, if the s5p-mfc driver needs to pre-allocate N MiB CMA memory
to decode a H.264 1080p video, then there won't be enough CMA memory left
for other drivers, such as the exynos-drm driver that may need to allocate
GEM buffers for the display manager.

Increasing CMA size to 96 Mbytes in exynos_defconfig addresses use-cases
such as these.

Changes since v1:
Fix short and long commit log.

Reason for this patch:
With the proposed s5p_mfc patch series that pre-allocate buffers, when
display manager starts, it fails to get GEM buffers.  Increasing the CMA
size to 96 solved the problem.
