Generally drivers have a specific idea what their HW structure size should be. In a lot of cases this is related to PAGE_SIZE, but not always. ARM64, for example, allows a 4K IO page table size on a 64K CPU page table system. Currently we don't have any good support for sub page allocations, but make the API accommodate this by accepting a sub page size from the caller and rounding up internally. This is done by moving away from order as the size input and using size: size == 1 << (order + PAGE_SHIFT) Following patches convert drivers away from using order and try to specify allocation sizes independent of PAGE_SIZE.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
