mainlining shenanigans
Some devices have limited addressing capabilities and cannot reference the whole memory address space while carrying out DMA operations (eg some devices with bus address bits range smaller than system bus - which prevents them from using bus addresses that are otherwise valid for the system). The ACPI _DMA object allows bus devices to define the DMA window that is actually addressable by devices that sit upstream the bus, therefore providing a means to parse and initialize the devices DMA masks and addressable DMA range size. By relying on the generic ACPI kernel layer to retrieve and parse resources, introduce ACPI core code to parse the _DMA object.

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.
