What makes me wonder is why NetBSD needed an additional BUS_DMA_NOCACHE flag as the purpose of BUS_DMA_COHERENT is to map pages into uncached address space or to set cache-inhibit bits in PTE. Btw, the workaround suggested by Intel said it _reduces_ the frequency of the failure(Master Abort). Because it does not remove the bug I wonder how it works well in real hardware. -- Regards, Pyun YongHyeon
