Christoph Hellwig 5b138c534f dma-direct: factor out a dma_direct_alloc_from_pool helper This ensures dma_direct_alloc_pages will use the right gfp mask, as well as keeping the code for that common between the two allocators. Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de>		2020-10-07 11:07:51 +02:00

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
