Currently, the driver allocates cacheable DMA buffers for rings like HAL_REO_DST and HAL_WBM2SW_RELEASE. The buffers for HAL_WBM2SW_RELEASE are large (1024 KiB), exceeding the SWIOTLB slot size of 256 KiB. This leads to "swiotlb buffer is full" error messages on systems without an IOMMU that use SWIOTLB, causing driver initialization failures. The driver calls dma_map_single() with these large buffers obtained from kzalloc(), resulting in ring initialization errors on systems without an IOMMU that use SWIOTLB. To address these issues, replace the flawed buffer allocation mechanism with the appropriate DMA API. Specifically, use dma_alloc_noncoherent() for cacheable DMA buffers, ensuring proper freeing of buffers with dma_free_noncoherent().

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.
