[BUG] crypto: hisilicon: accessing the data mapped to streaming DMA

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



In qm_qp_ctx_cfg(), "sqc" and "aeqc" are mapped to streaming DMA:
  eqc_dma = dma_map_single(..., eqc, ...);
  ......
  aeqc_dma = dma_map_single(..., aeqc, ...);

Then "sqc" and "aeqc" are accessed at many places, such as:
  eqc->base_l = cpu_to_le32(lower_32_bits(qm->eqe_dma));
  eqc->base_h = cpu_to_le32(upper_32_bits(qm->eqe_dma));
  ......
  aeqc->base_l = cpu_to_le32(lower_32_bits(qm->aeqe_dma));
  aeqc->base_h = cpu_to_le32(upper_32_bits(qm->aeqe_dma));

These accesses may cause data inconsistency between CPU cache and hardware.

I am not sure how to properly fix this problem, and thus I only report it.


Best wishes,
Jia-Ju Bai
