[PATCH 2/2] nvme-pci: use dma_alloc_noncontigous if possible

Christoph Hellwig hch at lst.de
Thu Oct 31 21:40:05 PDT 2024


Use dma_alloc_noncontigous to allocate a single IOVA-contigous segment
when backed by an IOMMU.  This allow to easily use bigger segments and
avoids running into segment limits if we can avoid it.
