Linux kernel source tree
IOMMUs using ARMv7 short-descriptor format require page tables (level 1
and 2) to be allocated within the first 4GB of RAM, even on 64-bit
systems.
For level 1/2 pages, ensure GFP_DMA32 is used if CONFIG_ZONE_DMA32 is
defined (e.g. on arm64 platforms).
For level 2 pages, allocate a slab cache in SLAB_CACHE_DMA32. Note that
we do not explicitly pass GFP_DMA[32] to kmem_cache_zalloc, as this is
not strictly necessary, and would cause a warning in mm/sl*b.c, as we
did not update GFP_SLAB_BUG_MASK.
Also, print an error when the physical address does not fit in
32-bit, to make debugging easier in the future.

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.
