Linux kernel source tree
Refactor the PCI P2PDMA subsystem to separate the core peer-to-peer DMA functionality from the optional memory allocation layer. This creates a two-tier architecture: The core layer provides P2P mapping functionality for physical addresses based on PCI device MMIO BARs and integrates with the DMA API for mapping operations. This layer is required for all P2PDMA users. The optional upper layer provides memory allocation capabilities including gen_pool allocator, struct page support, and sysfs interface for user space access. This separation allows subsystems like DMABUF to use only the core P2P mapping functionality without the overhead of memory allocation features they don't need. The core functionality is now available through the new pcim_p2pdma_provider() function that returns a p2pdma_provider structure.

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 reStructuredText 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.
