Right, now I'm reading this again there are two kind of offsets (quoting
code from today's master)
---
static void swiotlb_bounce(struct device *dev, phys_addr_t tlb_addr, size_t size,
                           enum dma_data_direction dir)
{
        struct io_tlb_mem *mem = io_tlb_default_mem;
        int index = (tlb_addr - mem->start) >> IO_TLB_SHIFT;
        phys_addr_t orig_addr = mem->slots[index].orig_addr;
---

There is:
 - (tlb_addr - mem->start) alignment that Linus added up
 - mem->slots[index].orig_addr alignment (within IO_TLB_SIZE blocks)


I would assume that series made it possible to preserve offsets within a
block for orig_addr, but in the process broke the offsets of a bounce
within an memory slot (the first one) ; I assume we want to restore here
the offset within the IO_TLB_SIZE block in orig_addr so it needs another
offseting of that orig_addr offset e.g. taking a block and offsets
within blocks, we have at the start of function:

 |-----------------|-------------------|--------------------------|
 ^                 ^                   ^
 block start       slot orig addr      tlb_addr

and want the orig_addr variable to align with tlb_addr.


So I was a bit hasty in saying nvme needs to remove offsets, it's more
that current code only has the second one working while the quick fix
breaks the second one in the process of fixing the first...



Jianxiong Gao, before spending more time on this, could you also try
Chanho Park's patch?
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-iommu/20210510091816.GA2084@lst.de/T/#m0d0df6490350a08dcc24c9086c8edc165b402d6f

I frankly don't understand many details of that code at this point,
in particular I have no idea why or if the patch needs another offset
with mem->start or where the dma_get_min_align_mask(dev) comes from,
but it'll be interesting to test.


Thanks,
