Title:
Change in kernel config between 4.4-rc7 and 4.4-rc8 breaks PC parallel
port DMA
Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
Incomplete
Bug description:
When testing mainline kernels from http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-
ppa/mainline/ I noticed a problem which first appears with the 4.4-rc8
kernel package.
I opened a bug on the kernel bugzilla a few days ago, see https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=110931
See that for details about the issue.
But I think the actual cause is a change in the Ubuntu kernel config.
CONFIG_ZONE_DMA not being set breaks PC parallel port DMA.
$ diff config-4.4.0-040400rc7-generic config-4.4.0-040400rc8-generic
...
393c393
< CONFIG_ZONE_DMA=y
---
> # CONFIG_ZONE_DMA is not set
517,518c517
< CONFIG_ZONE_DMA_FLAG=1
< CONFIG_BOUNCE=y
---
> CONFIG_ZONE_DMA_FLAG=0
545a545
> CONFIG_ZONE_DEVICE=y
...
Googling CONFIG_ZONE_DMA gave: "DMA memory allocation support allows
devices with less than 32-bit addressing to allocate within the first
16MB of address space. Disable if no such devices will be used."
With the kernel-ppa 4.4-rc8 package I get this dmesg output:
