[PATCH v2] b43: do not stack-allocate pio rx/tx header and tail buffers

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

 



The DMA-API debugging facility complains about b43 mapping memory from
stack for SDIO-based cards.

Indeed, b43 currently allocates the PIO RX/TX header and tail buffers
from stack. The solution here is to use heap-allocated buffers instead.

v2
- embed buffers into struct b43_wl, and make them depend on CONFIG_B43_PIO
- take into account tail buffers for unaligned length transfers
