[PATCH] dma-debug: New interfaces to debug dma mapping errors

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

 



A recent dma mapping error analysis effort showed that a large percentage
of dma_map_single() and dma_map_page() returns are not checked for mapping
errors.

Reference:
http://linuxdriverproject.org/mediawiki/index.php/DMA_Mapping_Error_Analysis

Adding support for tracking dma mapping and unmapping errors to help assess
the following:

When do dma mapping errors get detected?
How often do these errors occur?
Why don't we see failures related to missing dma mapping error checks?
Are they silent failures?

Four new fields are added to struct device when CONFIG_DMA_API_DEBUG is
enabled, to track the following:

dma_map_errors:
  Total number of dma mapping errors returned by the dma mapping interfaces,
  in response to mapping requests from this device.
dma_map_errors_not_checked:
  Total number of dma mapping errors the device failed to check before using
  the returned address.
dma_unmap_errors:
  Total number of times the device tried to unmap or free an invalid dma
  address.
iotlb_overflow_cnt:
  Tracks how many times a swiotlb overflow buffer is returned to this device
  when regular iotlb is full.

Enhancements to dma-debug api are made to add new debugfs interfaces to
report total dma errors, dma errors that are not checked, and unmap errors
for the entire system. Please note that these are counts for all devices in
the system.

The following new dma-debug interfaces are added:

debug_dma_mapping_error(struct device *dev, dma_addr_t dma_addr):
	Tracks dma mapping errors checked by the device. It decrements
	the dma_map_errors_not_checked counter that was incremented by
	debug_dma_map_page() when it checked for errors.
debug_dma_dump_map_errors(struct device *dev, int all):
	Allows dump of dma mapping error summary or just the errors if any.

The following existing dma-debug api are changed to support this feature:
debug_dma_map_page():
	Increments dma_map_errors and dma_map_errors_not_checked errors for
	the current device as well as totals for the system, dma-debug api
	keeps track of, when dma_addr is invalid. Please note that this
	routine can no longer call dma_mapping_error(), because of the newly
	added debug_dma_mapping_error() interface. Calling this routine at the
	time dma error unchecked state is registered, will not help if state
	gets changed right away.
check_unmap():
	This is an existing internal routines that checks for unmap errors,
	changed to increment dma_unmap_errors for the current device, as well
	as the dma_unmap_errors counter for the system, dma-debug api keeps
	track of, when a device requests an invalid address to be unmapped.
	Please note that this routine can no longer call dma_mapping_error(),
	because of the newly added debug_dma_mapping_error() interface. Calling
	dma_mapping_error() from this routine will decrement
	dma_map_errors_not_checked counter incorrectly.

The following new swiotlb interface is changed:
swiotlb_map_page():
	Increments iotlb_overflow_cnt for the device when iotlb overflow
	buffer is returned when swiotlb is full.

Changed arch/x86/include/asm/dma-mapping.h to call debug_dma_mapping_error()
to validate these new interfaces on x86_64. Other architectures will be
changed in a subsequent patch.

The current dma-debug infrastructure is designed to track dma mappings, and
debug entries are added only for correctly mapped addresses and not when
mapping fails. Enhancing the current infrastructure to track failed mappings
will result in unnecessary complexity. The approach to add counters to
struct device eliminates the need for maintaining failed mappings in dma-debug
infrastructure and is cleaner and simpler without impacting the existing
dma-debug infrastructure.
