Subject: [PATCH 1/7] dma: contiguous: Turn heap registration logic around
Date: Wed, 25 Feb 2026 17:41:49 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260225-dma-buf-heaps-as-modules-v1-1-2109225a090d@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260225-dma-buf-heaps-as-modules-v1-0-2109225a090d@kernel.org>
The CMA heap instantiation was initially developed by having the
contiguous DMA code call into the CMA heap to create a new instance
every time a reserved memory area is probed.
Turning the CMA heap into a module would create a dependency of the
kernel on a module, which doesn't work.
Let's turn the logic around and do the opposite: store all the reserved
memory CMA regions into the contiguous DMA code, and provide an iterator
for the heap to use when it probes.
