With all DMA address accesses wrapped, we can actually support 64-bit DMA if this option was chosen at IP integration time. If the IP has been configured for an address width greater than 32 bits, we assume the full 64 bit DMA width is working. In practise this will be limited by the actual system address bus width, which will ideally be the same as the DMA IP address width. If this is not the case, the actual width can still be configured using a dma-ranges property in the parent of the MAC node. This increases the DMA mask on those systems to let the kernel choose buffers from memory at higher addresses. Signed-off-by: Andre Przywara <andre.przywara@arm.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
