[U-Boot] [PATCH v3 12/18] lcd: Add CONFIG_LCD_ALIGNMENT to select frame buffer alignment

Simon Glass sjg at chromium.org
Thu Jul 12 17:25:12 CEST 2012


The normal alignment is PAGE_SIZE, but if this is defined, we can support
other alignments.

The motivation for this change is to make the display section-aligned on
ARM so that we can easily turn off data caching for the frame buffer region
without resorting to level 2 page tables.

Changes in v2:
- Use a more generic config CONFIG_LCD_ALIGNMENT for lcd alignment
