32M of CMA memory has been configured in the kernel。

what may be the above problem and how to solve it?

[hanie-gh]

You can increase the CMA size in the Linux kernel with the following bootargs in your device tree: chosen { setenv bootargs " earlycon console=ttyPS1,115200 clk_ignore_unused root=/dev/ram0 rw init_fatal_sh=1 cma=1200M" };

hi @L123ee .Have you solved this problem? My CMA capacity is 256MB and I also get the same error
