It is the programmer's responsibility to either have "bytes" aligned to cache line size or use a wrapper like DEFINE_CACHE_ALIGN_BUFFER(). > > > if (!mem) > > return NULL; > > Best regards, > Marek Vasut

Usage of memalign seemed to fix the wrong cache alignment buffer allocation issue in a code which I know. > [...] > > Best regards, > Marek Vasut

Calls to malloc() have been replaced by memalign. It now provides proper buffer alignment.
