>> Currently, the HiSilicon accelerator service uses the dma_map_sg interface. We want to evaluate the performance of the entire DMA map process. (including not only the iommu, but also the map framework). In addition, for scatterlist, __iommu_map is executed for each nent. This increases the complexity and time overhead of mapping. The effect of this fragmentation is not obvious in dma_map_single, which only handles a single contiguous block of memory.

Hello Barry !
Thank you for your advice, I will I'll pay attention. Leon

You can see this patch
:https://lore.kernel.org/all/cover.1738765879.git.leonro@nvidia.com/
Leon provides new interface for scatterlist scenarios to improve
performance and gives some
application instance in rdma and vfio. Users can use dma_map_sg
benchmark to measure
the performance improvement of the optimized interface compared with the
previous one.
Thanks!
