To be honest, even the dmabuf docs mixes 'dma-buf' and 'dmabuf', to my eye: https://docs.kernel.org/driver-api/dma-buf.html I can edit these docs I'm adding so these are consistent. But on 'devmem dmabuf', not sure to be honest. Technically all dmabufs are supported, even non-devmem ones. I'm not sure non-devmem dmabufs are common at all, the only example I can think of is udmabuf whose primary user is qemu and testing, so it's somewhat implied that the dmabuf is devmem, and even if it isn't, it would be supported. I prefer to keep the docs saying just 'dmabuf' as technically all are supported. Maybe I should add a note about this somewhere in the dedicated docs. -- Thanks, Mina
