Mostly memory returned from kmalloc is aligned for generic
data types but incase you want to set it explicitly you can
use below macro:
ALIGN(returned_memory, 32);

Hi All,
I'm allocating a memory for linux driver using the kmalloc and I need to
align it to 32 bit how do I do it?
Thank you,

It seems self-explanatory. Most atomic ops
Hi,
This is a text excerpt from the article [1].
Below paragraph I didn't understand quite well.Mainly in bold letters.Could
anybody please explain how this will lead to an infinite loop.
Atomicity
All modern processors offer atomic instructions. These special instructions
are crucial for synch

Hi All,
I have some doubts on the alignment requirement.It would be really
helpful,if someone can shed some light on this.
Why there are so many different types of alignment like 4 byte, 8 byte,16
byte ?.My exact question is, in a 32 bit machine(I assume processor reads
data in 4 bytes),how 16 byt
13 matches
