<id>urn:sha1:4faf4bbc2d600a921052ff45b1b5914d583d9046</id>
<content type='text'>
commit 5c1733e33c888a3cb7f576564d8ad543d5ad4a9e upstream.

Currently the standard memory allocator (snd_dma_malloc_pages*())
passes the byte size to allocate as is.  Most of the backends
allocates real pages, hence the actual allocations are aligned in page
size.  However, the genalloc doesn't seem assuring the size alignment,
hence it may result in the access outside the buffer when the whole
memory pages are exposed via mmap.

For avoiding such inconsistencies, this patch makes the allocation
size always to be aligned in page size.

Note that, after this change, snd_dma_buffer.bytes field contains the
aligned size, not the originally requested size.  This value is also
used for releasing the pages in return.

commit 74c64efa1557fef731b59eb813f115436d18078e upstream.

Since mmap for userspace is based on page alignment, add page alignment
for iram alloc from pool, otherwise, some good data located in the same
page of dmab-&gt;area maybe touched wrongly by userspace like pulseaudio.

<content type='text'>
Some fields in snd_dma_buffer aren't touched in snd_dma_alloc_pages()
and might be left uninitialized.  Let's clear all fields properly, so
that we can use a NULL check (e.g. dmab-&gt;private_data) as conditional
in a later patch.

<id>urn:sha1:1fe7f397cfe229494a88c6496b53ba532d4d4a42</id>
<content type='text'>
This patch adds the vmalloc buffer support to ALSA memalloc core.  A
new type, SNDRV_DMA_TYPE_VMALLOC was added.

The vmalloc buffer has been already supported in the PCM via a few own
helper functions, but the user sometimes get confused and misuse
them.  With this patch, the whole buffer management is integrated into
the memalloc core, so they can be used in a sole common way.

<id>urn:sha1:08422d2c559d1119b17c14e79b2d8ff89f46a356</id>
<content type='text'>
Currently we pass the artificial device pointer to the allocation
helper in the case of SNDRV_DMA_TYPE_CONTINUOUS for passing the GFP
flags.  But all common cases are the allocations with GFP_KERNEL, and
it's messy to put this in each place.

In this patch, the memalloc core helper is changed to accept the NULL
device pointer and it treats as the default mode, GFP_KERNEL, so that
all callers can omit the complex argument but just leave NULL.

<title>ALSA: Replace snd_malloc_pages() and snd_free_pages() with standard helpers, take#2</title>

<id>urn:sha1:734b5a0bbdf43518e6739c8156a985e385e557fe</id>
<content type='text'>
snd_malloc_pages() and snd_free_pages() are merely thin wrappers of
the standard page allocator / free functions.  Even the arguments are
compatible with some standard helpers, so there is little merit of
keeping these wrappers.

This patch replaces the all existing callers of snd_malloc_pages() and
snd_free_pages() with the direct calls of the standard helper
functions.  In this version, we use a recently introduced one,
alloc_pages_exact(), which suits better than the old
snd_malloc_pages() implementation for our purposes.  Then we can avoid
the waste of pages by alignment to power-of-two.

Since alloc_pages_exact() does split pages, we need no longer
__GFP_COMP flag; or better to say, we must not pass __GFP_COMP to
alloc_pages_exact().  So the former unconditional addition of
__GFP_COMP flag in snd_malloc_pages() is dropped, as well as in most
other places.
