You may get further e-mails resulting from automated or manual testing and review of the tree, please engage with people reporting problems and send followup patches addressing any issues that are reported if needed. If any updates are required or you are submitting further changes they should be sent as incremental updates against current git, existing patches will not be replaced. Please add any relevant lists and maintainers to the CCs when replying to this mail. Thanks, Mark From 7094576ccdc3acfe1e06a1e2ab547add375baf7f Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Cyrille Pitchen Date: Fri, 23 Jun 2017 17:39:16 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] spi: atmel: fix corrupted data issue on SAM9 family SoCs This patch disables the use of the DMA for data transfer and forces the use of PIO transfers instead as a quick fixup to solve the cache aliasing issue on ARM9 based cores, which embeds a VIVT data cache. Indeed in the case of VIVT data caches, it is not safe to call dma_map_*() functions to map buffers for DMA transfers when those buffers have been allocated by vmalloc() or from any DMA-unsafe area. Further patches may propose a better solution based on the use of a bounce buffer at the SPI sub-system level but such solution needs more time to be discussed. Then the use of DMA transfers could be enabled again to improve the performances but before that, this patch already solves the issue.
