SubjectRe: [Xen-devel] [PATCH 03 of 38] swiotlb: allow architectures tooverride swiotlb pool allocation
Not directly related to this patch alone, but to the combined set of changes
to swiotlb: I don't see any handling of CONFIG_HIGHMEM here (or at least
a note that this a known limitation needing work). I mention this because
this was the largest part of the changes I had posted long ago to make
lib/swiotlb.c Xen-ready, and which got rejected due to their ugliness.

While perhaps less intrusive to take care of, I also didn't see an equivalent
of the range_straddles_page_boundary() logic, without which I can't see
how this would work in the common case.

>>> Jeremy Fitzhardinge <jeremy@goop.org> 13.11.08 20:10 >>>
Architectures may need to allocate memory specially for use with
the swiotlb. Create the weak function swiotlb_alloc_boot() and
swiotlb_alloc() defaulting to the current behaviour.
