I think the important point is that for some cases there is no need to dma map at all, and upper layers should be fine by that by just doing the dma mapping in helpers called by the driver. The virtio drivers then check if platform_access is set, then call the generic dma mapping helper, or if not just allocate memory using alloc_pages and also skip all the sync calls. _______________________________________________ Virtualization mailing list Virtualization@lists.linux-foundation.org https://lists.linuxfoundation.org/mailman/listinfo/virtualization
