Subject: [PATCH v2 1/5] x86: make dma_alloc_coherent() return zeroed memory if CMA is enabled
Date: Tue, 14 Jan 2014 23:13:46 +0900 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1389708830-5841-2-git-send-email-akinobu.mita@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1389708830-5841-1-git-send-email-akinobu.mita@gmail.com>
Calling dma_alloc_coherent() with __GFP_ZERO must return zeroed memory.
But when the contiguous memory allocator (CMA) is enabled on x86 and
the memory region is allocated by dma_alloc_from_contiguous(), it
doesn't return zeroed memory. Because dma_generic_alloc_coherent()
forgot to fill the memory region with zero if it was allocated by
dma_alloc_from_contiguous()
Most implementations of dma_alloc_coherent() return zeroed memory
regardless of whether __GFP_ZERO is specified. So this fixes it by
unconditionally zeroing the allocated memory region.
