snd_dma_alloc_pages_fallback — allocate the buffer area according to the given type with fallback
int snd_dma_alloc_pages_fallback ( | int | type, |
struct device * | device, | |
size_t | size, | |
struct snd_dma_buffer * | dmab) ; |
type
the DMA buffer type
device
the device pointer
size
the buffer size to allocate
dmab
buffer allocation record to store the allocated data
Calls the memory-allocator function for the corresponding buffer type. When no space is left, this function reduces the size and tries to allocate again. The size actually allocated is stored in res_size argument.
Returns zero if the buffer with the given size is allocated successfuly, other a negative value at error.
