Subject: [PATCH v2 RESEND 3/7] dma-mapping: introduce the DMA_ATTR_MAY_SLEEP attribute
Date:   Tue,  9 May 2023 11:18:15 +0200
Message-Id: <5d00f29ab7f26a5de32c93792df32b689ccd9f3f.1683623618.git.petr.tesarik.ext@huawei.com>

From: Petr Tesarik <petr.tesarik.ext@huawei.com>

Introduce a DMA attribute to tell the DMA-mapping subsystem that
the operation is allowed to sleep.

This patch merely adds the flag, but it does not do anything at
the moment.

+DMA_ATTR_MAY_SLEEP
+------------------
+
+This tells the DMA-mapping subsystem that it is allowed to sleep. For example,
+if mapping needs a bounce buffer, software IO TLB may use CMA for the
+allocation if this flag is given.
+
+This attribute is not used for dma_alloc\* functions. Instead, the provided
+GFP flags are used to determine whether the allocation may sleep.
