[PATCH] USB: f_mass_storage: dynamic buffers for better alignment

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

 



From: Michal Nazarewicz <mina86@xxxxxxxxxx>

Using of "static" buffers in fsg_buffhd structure causes buffers
not to be aligned to any bigger power of two (like cache size for
instance) which as a result may lead to some copying of data or
slower DMA access (as head must to be copied via CPU).  So even
though code gets a bit more complicated this patch changes the
behaviour of mass storage function to use kmalloc()ed buffers which
are (because of their size) page aligned -- that should be enought
for any DMA or other hardware.
