We currently assume the IPA driver is built only for a 64 bit kernel. When this constraint was put in place it eliminated some do_div() calls, replacing them with the "/" and "%" operators. We now only use these operations on u32 and size_t objects. In a 32-bit kernel build, size_t will be 32 bits wide, so there remains no reason to use do_div() for divide and modulo. A few recent commits also fix some code that assumes that DMA addresses are 64 bits wide. With that, we can get rid of the 64-bit build requirement.

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.
