The BAM mode requires buffer for start tag data and tx, rx SG list. Currently, this is being taken for maximum transfer length (65K). But an I2C transfer can have multiple messages and each message can be of this maximum length so the buffer overflow will happen in this case. Since increasing buffer length won’t be feasible since an I2C transfer can contain any number of messages so this patch does following changes to make i2c transfers working for multiple messages case. 1. Calculate the required buffers for 2 maximum length messages (65K * 2). 2. Split the descriptor formation and descriptor scheduling. The idea is to fit as many messages in one DMA transfers for 65K threshold value (max_xfer_sg_len). Whenever the sg_cnt is crossing this, then schedule the BAM transfer and subsequent transfer will again start from zero.

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.
