[$] DMA addresses for UIO
mardi 22 avril 2025, 19:24 , par LWN.net
The Userspace
I/O (UIO) subsystem was first added to the kernel by Hans J. Koch for the 2.6.32 release in 2007. Its purpose is to facilitate the writing of drivers (mostly) in user space; to that end, it provides access to a number of resources that user-space code normally cannot touch. One piece that is missing, though, is DMA addresses. A proposal to fill that gap from Bastien Curutchet is running into some opposition, though.
