I think you should select 2M uncache DMA buffer.

Cliff:
- how is it possible that to play an audio file, needs 2 Meg of memory?
- can you make the error message more clear:How about something like:
"Failed to allocate 512k of memory for tx dma buf - increase uncached
area"

Hi Robin,
it doesn't mean it need 2M memmory,maybe just need more than 1M memory,since we
introduce 2 extra intermediate buffer(RX/TX)for implementing mmap and AC97 even
need more memory to construct ac97 frame.
For ad1980/1,currently we report to upper driver that we can allocate up to
128k memory for one PCM stream,the driver works in AC97 mode,so we need to
allocate 128*sizeof(ac97_frame)/4 for DMA.That means we need memory with size
640k(RX and TX,2*(128*10/4))If the driver is in mmap mode,we need to double that
memory size.
OK,I will add more detailed information.

It's OK after I set 2M uncache DMA buffer.
Close it.
