[PATCH 1/7] ubi: block: Refactor sg list processing for highmem

Richard Weinberger richard at nod.at
Thu Aug 10 09:00:12 PDT 2023


Currently sg_virt() is used while filling the sg list from LEB data.
This approach cannot work with highmem.

Refactor ubi_eba_read_leb_sg() to use kmap_atomic() for sg list
access.
Since kmap_atomic() disables preempt a bounce buffer is needed.
kmap_local_page() is not used to allow easy backporting of this patch
to older kernels.

The followup patches in this series will switch to kmap_sg()
and we can remove our own helper and the bounce buffer.
