We've not found any cases in current Linux where more than one dma-ranges
would be used. Moreover, The MM (definitely for ARM) isn't supported such
cases at all (if i understand everything right).
- there are only one arm_dma_pfn_limit
- there is only one MM zone is used for ARM
- some arches like x86,mips can support 2 zones (per arch - not per device or bus)
DMA & DMA32, but they configured once and forever per arch.
Example:
static void *loongson_dma_alloc_coherent(struct device *dev, size_t size,
dma_addr_t *dma_handle, gfp_t gfp, struct dma_attrs *attrs)
{
...
/* ignore region specifiers */
gfp &= ~(__GFP_DMA | __GFP_DMA32 | __GFP_HIGHMEM);
#ifdef CONFIG_ISA
if (dev == NULL)
gfp |= __GFP_DMA;
else
#endif
#ifdef CONFIG_ZONE_DMA
if (dev->coherent_dma_mask < DMA_BIT_MASK(32))
gfp |= __GFP_DMA;
else
#endif
#ifdef CONFIG_ZONE_DMA32
if (dev->coherent_dma_mask < DMA_BIT_MASK(40))
gfp |= __GFP_DMA32;
else
#endif
...
}
Any ways, it can be added later if we have an usecase for
that.

Drivers don't have to do anything special apart from setting
the correct mask. The pfn_offset case, we use DMA_ZONE which takes
care of masks already. Size is suppose to be used for dma_mask
setup which we discussed in previous threads.
