So the subject is wrong since "&priv->conf.phy" can hardly be "static global", but > We get DMA alignment trouble if the beginning of the struct is > unaligned. Allocate memory and send it to FW. If this is all about alignment, and > + params = kzalloc(sizeof(*params), GFP_KERNEL); kzalloc (which is pointless -- use kmemdup) alignment is sufficient, then most likely you could just put "__aligned(4)" or something on the conf.phy struct member and not allocate memory at all? johannes -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-wireless" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
