[RFC][PATCH 0/3] Support non-default CMA regions to the dmabuf heaps interface

From: John Stultz
Date: Fri Oct 25 2019 - 18:50:22 EST


Now that the dmabuf heaps core code has been queued, I wanted to
submit for initial review some of the changes I have pending.

In previous versions, the dmabuf CMA heap added all CMA areas to
the dmabuf heaps interface. However, Andrew noted this may not
be desirable, so I've come up with a DT binding and code to
allow specified CMA regions to be added to the dmabuf heaps
interface.

This allows additional CMA regions for things like cameras, etc
to be allocated from separately from the default region.

Review and feedback would be greatly appreciated!

thanks
