  • 336d4615f   dm: core: Create a new header file for 'compat' features ... Browse Code »
    1

    At present dm/device.h includes the linux-compatible features. This
    requires including linux/compat.h which in turn includes a lot of headers.
    One of these is malloc.h which we thus end up including in every file in
    U-Boot. Apart from the inefficiency of this, it is problematic for sandbox
    which needs to use the system malloc() in some files.

    Move the compatibility features into a separate header file.

  • e3332e1a1   Make kmalloc'ed memory really DMA-safe ... Browse Code »

    In Linux, the memory returned by kmalloc() is DMA-capable.
    However, it is not true in U-Boot.

    At a glance, kmalloc() in U-Boot returns address aligned with
    ARCH_DMA_MINALIGN. However, it never pads the allocated memory.
    This half-way house is completely useless because calling kmalloc()
    and malloc() in this order causes a cache sharing problem.

    Change the implementation to call malloc_cache_aligned(), which
    allocates really DMA-capable memory.

  • 6b9f9eadf   linux_compat: handle __GFP_ZERO in kmalloc() ... Browse Code »

    Currently, kzalloc() returns zero-filled memory, while kmalloc()
    simply ignores the second argument and never fills the memory
    area with zeros.

    I want kmalloc(size, __GFP_ZERO) to behave as kzalloc() does,
    which will make it easier to add more memory allocator variants.

    With the introduction of __GFP_ZERO flag, going forward, kzmalloc()
    variants can fall back to kmalloc() enabling the __GFP_ZERO flag.

  • ebc3328cc   linux_compat: move vzalloc() to header file as an inline function ... Browse Code »

    The vzalloc(size) is equivalent to kzalloc(size, 0). Move it to
    include/linux/compat.h as an inline function in order to avoid the
    function call overhead.
