When checking a memory buffer to be consecutive in machine memory,
the alignment needs to be checked, too. Failing to do so might result
in DMA memory not being aligned according to its requested size,
leading to error messages like:
4xxx 0000:2b:00.0: enabling device (0140 -> 0142)
4xxx 0000:2b:00.0: Ring address not aligned
4xxx 0000:2b:00.0: Failed to initialise service qat_crypto
4xxx 0000:2b:00.0: Resetting device qat_dev0
4xxx: probe of 0000:2b:00.0 failed with error -14

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.
