sg_alloc_table_from_buf() provides an easy solution to create an sg_table from a virtual address pointer. This function takes care of dealing with vmallocated buffers, buffer alignment, or DMA engine limitations (maximum DMA transfer size).
This seems nice. Should we also have a further helper on top of this which will get constraints from a dmaengine, it seems like it'd be a common need? -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
