Subject: [PATCHv2] dma: map_benchmark: turn dma_sg_map_param buf into a flexible array
Date: Tue, 2 Jun 2026 20:17:58 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260603031758.290538-1-rosenp@gmail.com> (raw)
The buf pointer was kmalloc_array()'d immediately after the parent
struct allocation, with the count (granule, validated to 1..1024 by
the ioctl) trivially available beforehand. Move buf to the struct
tail as a flexible array member and fold the two allocations into a
single kzalloc_flex(), dropping the kfree(params->buf) in both the
prepare error path and unprepare.
Add __counted_by for extra runtime analysis.
