SubjectDMA to/from user buffers

Hi,

two questions about using an user-supplied buffer (e.g. malloced
in user space) for DMA transfers:

1. Is it possible ?
2. What restrictions/requirements apply for the buffer (alignment...) ?

Documentation/DMA-mapping.txt only talks about buffers allocated in
kernel space.

thanks,
_sh_
