Fix screen corruption on older 32-bit systems using AGP chips.
On older systems with little memory, for instance 1.5 GiB, using an AGP chip,
the device's DMA mask is 0xFFFFFFFF, but the memory mask is 0x7FFFFFF, and
subsequently dma_addressing_limited() returns 0xFFFFFFFF < 0x7FFFFFFF,
false. As such the result of this static inline isn't suitable for the last
argument to ttm_device_init()--it simply needs to now whether to use GFP_DMA32
when allocating DMA buffers.
This sounds wrong to me. If the issues happen on systems without PAE it
clearly can't have anything to with the actual DMA address size. Not to
mention that AFAICS 32-bit x86 doesn't even have ZONE_DMA32, so
GFP_DMA32 would be functionally meaningless anyway. Although the
reported symptoms initially sounded like they could be caused by DMA
going to the wrong place, that is also equally consistent with a loss of
cache coherency.
My (limited) understanding of AGP is that the GART can effectively alias
memory to a second physical address, so I could well believe that
something somewhere in the driver stack needs to perform some cache
maintenance to avoid coherency issues, and that in these particular
setups whatever that is might be assuming the memory is direct-mapped
and thus going wrong for highmem pages.
So as I said before, I really think this is not about using GFP_DMA32 at
all, but about *not* using GFP_HIGHUSER.
Thanks,
Robin.
