Message-ID: <20130801213420.GL23006@n2100.arm.linux.org.uk> Date: Thu, 1 Aug 2013 22:34:20 +0100 From: Russell King - ARM Linux <linux@....linux.org.uk> To: linux-arm-kernel@...ts.infradead.org Cc: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@...db.de>, Catalin Marinas <catalin.marinas@....com>, Chris Ball <cjb@...top.org>, Jens Axboe <axboe@...nel.dk>, linux-kernel@...r.kernel.org, linux-scsi@...r.kernel.org, Nicolas Pitre <nicolas.pitre@...aro.org>, Will Deacon <will.deacon@....com> Subject: [PATCH RFC 00/51] Preview of DMA mask changes So, this patch set is a preview of the DMA mask changes which I currently have in my tree. This started out as a request to look at the DMA mask situation, and how to solve the issues which we have on ARM. One of those issues is how to deal with the DT side of things, which I haven't yet addressed. However, I started off reviewing how the dma_mask and coherent_dma_mask was being used, and what I found was rather messy, and in some cases rather buggy. I tried to get some of the bug fixes in before the last merge window, but it seems that the maintainers preferred to have the full solution rather than a simple -rc suitable bug fix. So, this is an attempt to clean things up. The first point here is that drivers performing DMA should be calling dma_set_mask()/dma_set_coherent_mask() in their probe function to verify that DMA can be performed. Lots of ARM drivers omit this step; please refer to the DMA API documentation on this subject. What this means is that the DMA mask provided by bus code is a default value - nothing more. It doesn't have to accurately reflect what the device is actually capable of. Apart from the storage for dev->dma_mask being initialised for any device which is DMA capable, there is no other initialisation which is strictly necessary at device creation time. Now, these cleanups address two major areas: 1. The setting of DMA masks, particularly when both the coherent and streaming DMA masks are set together. 2. The initialisation of DMA masks by drivers - this seems to be becoming a popular habbit, one which may not be entirely the right solution. Rather than having this scattered throughout the tree, I've pulled that into a central location (and called it coercing the DMA mask - because it really is about forcing the DMA mask to be that value.) 3. Finally, addressing the long held misbelief that DMA masks somehow correspond with physical addresses. We already have established long ago that dma_addr_t values returned from the DMA API are the values which you program into the DMA controller, and so are the bus addresses. It is _only_ sane that DMA masks are also bus related too, and not related to physical address spaces. (3) is a very important point for LPAE systems, which may still have less than 4GB of memory, but this memory is all located above the 4GB physical boundary. This means with the current model, any device using a 32-bit DMA mask fails - even though the DMA controller is still only a 32-bit DMA controller but the 32-bit bus addresses map to system memory. To put it another way, the bus addresses have a 4GB physical offset on them. This work is ongoing, and I'm still fixing the odd bug which the nightly autobuilder randconfigs find (when it doesn't hit some other problem.) I'm not using get_maintainer.pl for this series yet, because the list of recipients is gigantic and would not pass through vger's filters, let alone other mailing lists. So this initial posting will only be sent to those listed explicitly in Cc:'s in the patches, linux-kernel and linux-arm-kernel... and it will take about an hour to send all these patches out.
