The patch titled Subject: mm: slab: reduce the kmalloc() minimum alignment if DMA bouncing possible has been added to the -mm mm-unstable branch. Its filename is mm-slab-reduce-the-kmalloc-minimum-alignment-if-dma-bouncing-possible.patch This patch will shortly appear at https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/25-new.git/tree/patches/mm-slab-reduce-the-kmalloc-minimum-alignment-if-dma-bouncing-possible.patch This patch will later appear in the mm-unstable branch at git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm Before you just go and hit "reply", please: a) Consider who else should be cc'ed b) Prefer to cc a suitable mailing list as well c) Ideally: find the original patch on the mailing list and do a reply-to-all to that, adding suitable additional cc's *** Remember to use Documentation/process/submit-checklist.rst when testing your code *** The -mm tree is included into linux-next via the mm-everything branch at git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm and is updated there every 2-3 working days ------------------------------------------------------ From: Catalin Marinas <catalin.marinas@xxxxxxx> Subject: mm: slab: reduce the kmalloc() minimum alignment if DMA bouncing possible Date: Mon, 12 Jun 2023 16:32:00 +0100 If an architecture opted in to DMA bouncing of unaligned kmalloc() buffers (ARCH_WANT_KMALLOC_DMA_BOUNCE), reduce the minimum kmalloc() cache alignment below cache-line size to ARCH_KMALLOC_MINALIGN.
