This is a repost - the original mail was ack-ed by Nick Cheng - http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-scsi/msg50594.html Hi Nick, I'm confused with what this code does, I think I must miss something. dma_coherent = dma_alloc_coherent(&pdev->dev, acb->uncache_size, &dma_coherent_handle, GFP_KERNEL); ... I think that the dma_alloc_coherent returns a page address with zeroes in the lowest bits That would mean the offset computed below is useless as the result is zero every time. Added to that is that you then increase dma_coherent_handle by the offset, while dma_coherent is increased by multiples of sizeof CommandControlBlock, at least it looks so ... offset = roundup((unsigned long)dma_coherent, 32) - (unsigned long)dma_coherent; dma_coherent_handle = dma_coherent_handle + offset; dma_coherent = (struct CommandControlBlock *)dma_coherent + offset; The patch below removes the offset computation.
