User-space can provide cache hints to enable software managed cache operations or skip certain cache operations using memory flags and buffer flags. This is useful for SoCs such as AM62px which do not support hardware cache coherency. This is tested on AM62px with yavta capture by passing V4L2_MEMORY_FLAG_NON_COHERENT while using VIDIOC_REQBUFS and V4L2_BUF_FLAG_NO_CACHE_CLEAN while using VIDIOC_QBUF and ~5x reduction in memcpy time is seen for copying captured frame to DDR.

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.
