V2 [PATCH 1/2] tty: hvc: pass DMA capable memory to put_chars() https://lkml.org/lkml/2021/8/1/8 [PATCH 2/2] virtio-console: remove unnecessary kmemdup() https://lkml.org/lkml/2021/8/1/9 For v2 patch, Arnd Bergmann suggests to make new buf part of the hvc_struct structure, and fix the compile issue. The fix suggestion is included in v3. V3 [PATCH v3 1/2] tty: hvc: pass DMA capable memory to put_chars() https://lkml.org/lkml/2021/8/3/1347 [PATCH v3 2/2] virtio-console: remove unnecessary kmemdup() https://lkml.org/lkml/2021/8/3/1348 For v3 patch, Jiri Slaby suggests to make 'char c[N_OUTBUF]' part of hvc_struct, and make 'hp->outbuf' aligned and use struct_size() to calculate the size of hvc_struct. The fix suggestion is included in v4. V4 [PATCH v4 0/2] make hvc pass dma capable memory to its backend https://lkml.org/lkml/2021/8/5/1350 [PATCH v4 1/2] tty: hvc: pass DMA capable memory to put_chars() https://lkml.org/lkml/2021/8/5/1351 [PATCH v4 2/2] virtio-console: remove unnecessary kmemdup() https://lkml.org/lkml/2021/8/5/1352 For v4 patch, Arnd Bergmann suggests to introduce another array(cons_outbuf[]) for the buffer pointers next to the cons_ops[] and vtermnos[] arrays. This fix included in this v5 patch. V5 Arnd Bergmann suggests to use "L1_CACHE_BYTES" as dma alignment, use 'sizeof(long)' as dma alignment is wrong. fix it in v6. drivers/char/virtio_console.c | 12 ++---------- drivers/tty/hvc/hvc_console.c | 40 +++++++++++++++++++++-------------- drivers/tty/hvc/hvc_console.h | 16 ++++++++++++-- 3 file changed
