The Documentation/DMA-API-HOWTO.txt states that the dma_map_sg() function
returns the number of the created entries in the DMA address space.
However the subsequent calls to the dma_sync_sg_for_{device,cpu}() and
dma_unmap_sg must be called with the original number of the entries
passed to the dma_map_sg().

struct sg_table is a common structure used for describing a non-contiguous
memory buffer, used commonly in the DRM and graphics subsystems. It
consists of a scatterlist with memory pages and DMA addresses (sgl entry),
as well as the number of scatterlist entries: CPU pages (orig_nents entry)
and DMA mapped pages (nents entry).

It turned out that it was a common mistake to misuse nents and orig_nents
entries, calling DMA-mapping functions with a wrong number of entries or
ignoring the number of mapped entries returned by the dma_map_sg()
function.

Fix the code to refer to proper nents or orig_nents entries. This driver
checks for a buffer contiguity in DMA address space, so it should test
sg_table->nents entry.

Hmm, if this really does mean *physically* contiguous - i.e. if buffers might be shared between DMA-translatable and non-DMA-translatable devices - then these changes might not be appropriate. If not and it only actually means DMA-contiguous, then it would be good to clarify the comments to that effect.

Can anyone familiar with omapdrm clarify what exactly the case is here? I know that IOMMUs might be involved to some degree, and I've skimmed the interconnect chapters of enough OMAP TRMs to be scared by the reference to the tiler aperture in the context below :)

Robin.
