| |
Recently I had a driver try with a peculiar 2G dma memory limit. It failed in weird and strange ways because my bounce buffers were being allocated above 2G where the driver could not reach, and no error was reported when the mappings were setup.
Use the swiotlb_dma_supported to avoid silent problems like this in the future.
