[PATCH 0/3] staging: comedi: adl_pci9118: redo DMA buffer allocation

From: Ian Abbott
Date: Fri Sep 12 2014 - 05:06:42 EST


"adl_pci9118" allocates more pages of DMA buffer than it uses, may
allocate half a double-buffer it does not use because it's the "wrong"
half that it managed to allocate (unlikely), and relies on virt_to_bus()
to treat generic kernel memory from get_free_pages() as coherent DMA
memory. Correct the issues, using dma_alloc_coherent() to allocate the
DMA buffers.

1) staging: comedi: adl_pci9118: don't allocate 2nd DMA buffer on
failure
2) staging: comedi: adl_pci9118: don't overallocate DMA buffer
3) staging: comedi: adl_pci9118: use dma_alloc_coherent()
