I'm afraid that for systems with low amount of system memory and when
the memory become fragmented, the driver will not work. That's why I
started with sg allocator.
It is exactly the opposite. The vb2-dma-contig allocator is "contig"
in terms of the DMA (aka IOVA) address space. In other words, it
guarantees that having one DMA address and length fully describes the
buffer. This seems to be the requirement of the hardware/firmware
handled by the venus driver. If the device is behind an IOMMU, which
is the case for the SoCs in question, the underlying DMA ops will
actually allocate a discontiguous set of pages, so it has nothing to
do to system memory amount or fragmentation. If for some reason the
IOMMU can't be used, there is no way around, the memory needs to be
contiguous because of the hardware/firmware/driver expectation.
On the other hand, the vb2-dma-sg allocator doesn't have any
continuity guarantees for the DMA, or any other, address space.
Yes, intuitively one would assume that the sg code was for devices with
native scatter-gather capability that can deal with an actual set of
buffer descriptors, rather than just a single pointer (which is the
original purpose of scatterlists, after all). I've always been slightly
puzzled why the two seem to be quite so similar.
The
current code works fine, because it calls dma_map_sg() on the whole
set of pages and that ends up mapping it contiguously in the IOVA
space, but that's just an implementation detail, not an API guarantee.
Oh, the fun we've had over that implementation detail! :P
Robin.
Best regards,

is always enforced. Since the device is supposed to be behind an IOMMU
this should have little to none practical consequences beyond making the
driver not rely on a particular behavior of the SG implementation.

Hi everyone,
It probably doesn't hurt to fix this issue before some actual issue happens.
I have tested this patch on Chrome OS and playback was just as fine as with
the SG ops.
