Thanks l lot for your advice BMS. :)

I don't flush the CPU cache. How can i do for this method?

Anyway, I'm use virt_to_bus() with address that i get from "kmalloc" .
My stage is clear from SSPTx by DMA, but, I have a new problem with SSPRx, 
another channel of DMAM2M.

i check that i got from SSPRX by DMA,sometime it right, sometime it wrong.

In my case, I use TS7400 to get data from external device via SPI bus.
, data is around 6000 byte per sec. That why i choose DMA.
I coding the basic test now before implement it for using in my coding.
