Won't this trigger unaligned access if $buf is not aligned to 4-byte boundary ?
Thanks for catching this.
Actually, it would seldom happen because the aligned load address is generally given.
But I will add a sanity check here in v2, just in case.
Or just use put_unaligned() ?
- /* setup the pipeline command */
- index_addr(cmd, 0x2000 | page_count);
Magic value 0x2000 should be fixed here.
Actually, this part is the same as that of the normal Denali driver by Chin Liang See http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/357717/
Moreover, it is the same as in Linux Kernel.
I understand what you mean, but I guess we can excuse here.
OK, I see. Is there any chance to fix this in Linux maybe eventually?
