[PATCH 1/3 for-next] pvscsi: Use coherent memory instead of dma mapping sg lists

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

 



Use coherent memory instead of dma mapping sg lists each
time they are used. This becomes important with SEV/swiotlb where
dma mapping otherwise implies bouncing of the data. It also gets rid
of a point of potential failure.

Tested using a "bonnie++" run on an 8GB pvscsi disk on a swiotlb=force
booted kernel.
