Hi, While debugging DMA mapping error in chelsio crypto driver we observed that when scatter/gather list received by driver has some entry with page->offset > 4096 (PAGE_SIZE). It starts giving DMA error. Without IOMMU it works fine. Before reaching to chelsio crypto driver(driver/crypto/chelsio) following entities change the sg' 1) IN esp_output() "__skb_to_sgvec()" convert skb frags to scatter gather list. At that moment sg->offset was 4094. 2) From esp_output control reaches to "crypto_authenc_encrypt()". Here in "scatterwalk_ffwd()" sg->offset become 4110. 3) Same sg list received by chelsio crypto driver(chcr). When chcr try to do DMA mapping it starts giving DMA errors. Following error observed. first two prints are added for debugging in chcr. Kernel version used to reproduce is 4.9.28 on x86_64.

We are expecting IOMMU bugs. Regards Harsh Jain
