From 771f74c3d31a265bae103b2b407286ec03a4589b Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Kuo-Jung Su Date: Mon, 29 Jul 2013 13:51:43 +0800 Subject: [PATCH] arm: dma_alloc_coherent: malloc() -> memalign() Even though the MMU/D-cache is off, some DMA engines still expect strict address alignment. For example, the incoming Faraday FTMAC110 & FTGMAC100 ethernet controllers expect the tx/rx descriptors should always be aligned to 16-bytes boundary.
