| |
This series [1] reducing the kmalloc() minimum alignment on arm64 to 8 (from 128). In libsas, this will cause SMP requests to be 8-byte-aligned through kmalloc() allocation. However, for the hisi_sas hardware, all commands address must be 16-byte-aligned. Otherwise, the commands fail to be executed.
ARCH_DMA_MINALIGN represents the minimum (static) alignment for safe DMA operations, so use ARCH_DMA_MINALIGN as the alignment for SMP request.

Changes since v2: - Use 16B as alignment for SMP requests instead of ARCH_DMA_MINALIGN.
Changes since v1: - Directly modify alloc_smp_req() instead of using handler callback. --- drivers/scsi/libsas/sas_expander.c | 2 +- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-)
