Did yo ever get a reply to this? That sounds like just what I want to do
(well, it sounds just like what our vxworks code does to do what I want to
do, which I guess is good enough).

TIA,

I am looking for a solution to a similar problem. I am writing a
driver for an FCC on the 8260 in transparent mode, and need
to allocate buffer memory. The buffer memory will get filled
via DMA, and therefore must not be cached. Will the following work
correctly?

	vaddr = kmalloc(BUF_SIZE, GFP_DMA);
	paddr = __pa(vaddr);

Thanks.
