[PATCH v7 4/5] virtio: Introduce virtio_max_dma_size()

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

 



From: Joerg Roedel <jroedel@xxxxxxx>

This function returns the maximum segment size for a single
dma transaction of a virtio device. The possible limit comes
from the SWIOTLB implementation in the Linux kernel, that
has an upper limit of (currently) 256kb of contiguous
memory it can map. Other DMA-API implementations might also
have limits.

Use the new dma_max_mapping_size() function to determine the
maximum mapping size when DMA-API is in use for virtio.
