Once DMA API usage is enabled, it becomes apparent that virtio-mmio is inadvertently relying on the default 32-bit DMA mask, which leads to problems like rapidly exhausting SWIOTLB bounce buffers. Ensure that we set the appropriate 64-bit DMA mask whenever possible, with the coherent mask suitably limited for the legacy vring as pera0be1db430("virtio_pci: Limit DMA mask to 44 bits for legacy virtio devices").

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
