I'm not a fan of the change :) Hopefully someone from NXP can provide some insight here? If it's absolutely needed for the VPU, then I guess it should be 1) very well documented and 2) moved to the top-lovel dtsi. But if we can drop it, that'd be nicer. Thanks, Ezequiel

What's the justification for this CMA area? I could only imagine the DMA addressing restrictions on the platform. DMA masters on the i.MX8MQ can not access memory beyond the 4GB mark and 1GB of address space is reserved for MMIO, so if you have 4GB installed the upper 1GB of DRAM is only accessible to the CPU. But this restriction is already properly communicated to the Linux DMA framework by the dma-ranges in the top level SoC bus node in the DT, so I don't think this CMA setup is necessary.

And it is intended as a legally binding document that you didn't sneak in any copyrighted code from SCO UNIXWARE (etc). So like maybe the authors snuck some in or maybe a maintainer took the patch and sneaked some unixware code in. Obviously if you sign the code, that counts as an Ack and Review as well because maintainers are going to only merge stuff if they've looked it over a bit. But the main thing is that it means you didn't didn't violate any copyrights. regards, dan carpenter
