Subject: [PATCH] Export kmap_atomic_pfn for DRM-GEM.
Date: Tue, 26 Aug 2008 12:43:08 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1219779789-8368-3-git-send-email-eric@anholt.net> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1219779789-8368-2-git-send-email-eric@anholt.net>
The driver would like to map IO space directly for copying data in when
appropriate, to avoid CPU cache flushing for streaming writes.
kmap_atomic_pfn lets us avoid IPIs associated with ioremap for this process.
