Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br />
<br />
LoongArch: Increase ARCH_DMA_MINALIGN up to 16<br />
<br />
ARCH_DMA_MINALIGN is 1 by default, but some LoongArch-specific devices<br />
(such as APBDMA) require 16 bytes alignment. When the data buffer length<br />
is too small, the hardware may make an error writing cacheline. Thus, it<br />
is dangerous to allocate a small memory buffer for DMA. It&#39;s always safe<br />
to define ARCH_DMA_MINALIGN as L1_CACHE_BYTES but unnecessary (kmalloc()<br />
need small memory objects). Therefore, just increase it to 16.
