Hi,

And as the HW guarantees it on your platform, your platform

reason to do this.

It is the same reason you chose the word 'effectively', not 'difinitely'.

We don't want waste the CPU's time,


 to running the dma_sync_sg_for_cpu funcion() function


```

void dma_sync_sg_for_cpu(struct device *dev, struct scatterlist *sg,
            int nelems, enum dma_data_direction dir)
{
    const struct dma_map_ops *ops = get_dma_ops(dev);

    BUG_ON(!valid_dma_direction(dir));
    if (dma_map_direct(dev, ops))
        dma_direct_sync_sg_for_cpu(dev, sg, nelems, dir);
    else if (ops->sync_sg_for_cpu)
        ops->sync_sg_for_cpu(dev, sg, nelems, dir);
    debug_dma_sync_sg_for_cpu(dev, sg, nelems, dir);
}

```


 to running the this:


```

int etnaviv_gem_cpu_fini(struct drm_gem_object *obj)
{
    struct drm_device *dev = obj->dev;
    struct etnaviv_gem_object *etnaviv_obj = to_etnaviv_bo(obj);
    struct etnaviv_drm_private *priv = dev->dev_private;

    if (!priv->dma_coherent && etnaviv_obj->flags & ETNA_BO_CACHED) {
        /* fini without a prep is almost certainly a userspace error */
        WARN_ON(etnaviv_obj->last_cpu_prep_op == 0);
        dma_sync_sgtable_for_device(dev->dev, etnaviv_obj->sgt,
etnaviv_op_to_dma_dir(etnaviv_obj->last_cpu_prep_op));
        etnaviv_obj->last_cpu_prep_op = 0;
    }

    return 0;
}

```


But, this is acceptable, because we can kill the GEM_CPU_PREP and GEM_CPU_FINI ioctl entirely

at userspace for cached buffer, as this is totally not needed for cached mapping on our platform.


Well leave this for the WC mapping only,

OK ?
