X-Git-Tag: v7.0-rc4~17^2^2~1
X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=c7940c8bf215b9dc6211781c77ce80e76982a723;p=thirdparty%2Fkernel%2Flinux.git

gpu: nova-core: fix stack overflow in GSP memory allocation

The `Cmdq::new` function was allocating a `PteArray` struct on the stack
and was causing a stack overflow with 8216 bytes.

Modify the `PteArray` to calculate and write the Page Table Entries
directly into the coherent DMA buffer one-by-one. This reduces the stack
usage quite a lot.

[ * Use PteArray::entry() in LogBuffer::new(),
  * Add TODO comment to use IoView projections once available,
  * Add PTE_ARRAY_SIZE constant to avoid duplication.
