The caller is supposed to be providing us with aligned memory here. However it could be helpful to do this so... > - const int sgs = DIV_ROUND_UP(len, desc_len); > + const int sgs = DIV_ROUND_UP(vmalloced_buf ? > + len + offset_in_page(buf) : len, > + desc_len); No, please write this legibly without the ternery operator.
