Subject: [PATCH 0/18] DMA-API debugging facility v4
Hi,
this is version 4 of the patchset which introduces code to debug drivers
usage of the DMA-API. Many thanks to all the reviewers and the useful
comments on the previous versions of this patchset. Appended is a
changelog, the shortlog and the diff-stat.
Changes from v3 -> v4:
- a patch from David Woodhouse adds printing of the mapping path
stacktrace on an unmap error
- another patch from David added a function which drivers can use to
dump their DMA mappings
- two new checks in the sync-path check if the dma memory was mapped for
the requested sync direction
- a check for mapping requests of memory on kernel stacks was added
(thanks to Arndt Bergmann)
- A bug in the handling of dma_map_sg/dma_unmap_sg pointed out by
FUJITA Tomonori was fixed
- As a result of the previous fix a check was added to find if a driver
unmaps different count of sg entries than it mapped
- Various changes to the hash (larger hash size, hash function uses
lower bits than before)
- Some minor fixes pointed out by reviewers
Changes from v2 -> v3:
- rebased patches against tip/core/iommu branch
- changed storage of virtual address to physical address in
struct dma_debug_entry (thanks Fujita)
- removed usage of x86 specific bad_dma_address (thanks Fujita)
- changed a error log message to be more clear (thanks Roel)
- fixed a bug with wrong handling of map_page/unmap_page requests
(thanks Michael)
- various improvements and fixes suggested by Ingo, thanks
- added more comments
Changes from v1 -> v2:
- moved code to lib/ and include/linux to make it usable for all
architectures
- more fine grained hash locking (locking is now per hash
bucket, no global lock anymore)
- dma_debug_entries are preallocated
- per default the code will only print one warning and is
silent then
- added a debugfs interface to see some statistics and to
enable more verbose error reporting in the kernel log
- added command line parameter to disable debugging code
- allocation errors are now handled correctly
- added documentation about this facility for driver developers
Joerg
