Subject: Re: [PATCH V8 4/5] libsas: Align SMP req/resp todma_get_cache_alignment()

Hi, Marek,

Yes, I know in include/linux/slab.h, there is
#define KMALLOC_MIN_SIZE ARCH_DMA_MINALIGN

But I observed that the req/resp isn't aligned to ARCH_DMA_MINALIGN and I don't know why.

Problems I experienced is: In non-coherent mode, mvsas with an expander cannot detect any disks.

If I remember correctly, kernel guarantees that each kmalloced buffer is
always at least aligned to the CPU cache line, so CPU cache can be
invalidated on the allocated buffer without corrupting anything else.
Taking this into account, I wonder if the above change make sense.

Have you experienced any problems without this change?

Save a above.
