This patch lets vb2-dma-contig memory allocator to configure DMA max segment size properly for the client device. Setting it is needed to let DMA-mapping subsystem to create a single, contiguous mapping in DMA address space. This is essential for all devices, which use dma-contig videobuf2 memory allocator and shared buffers (in USERPTR or DMAbuf modes of operations). Signed-off-by: Marek Szyprowski <m.szyprowski@xxxxxxxxxxx> --- Hello, This patch is a follow-up of my previous attempts to let Exynos multimedia devices to work properly with shared buffers when IOMMU is enabled: 1. https://www.mail-archive.com/linux-media@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/msg96946.html 2. http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.drivers.video-input-infrastructure/97316 3. https://patchwork.linuxtv.org/patch/30870/ As sugested by Hans, configuring DMA max segment size should be done by videobuf2-dma-contig module instead of requiring all device drivers to do it on their own. Here is some backgroud why this is done in videobuf2-dc not in the respective generic bus code: http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/linux-arm-kernel/2014-November/305913.html Best regards, Marek Szyprowski changelog: v3: - added FIXME note about possible memory leak v2: - fixes typos and other language issues in the comments v1: http://article.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel.samsung-soc/53690 --- drivers/media/v4l2-core/videobuf2-dma-contig.c | 45 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++ 1 file changed, 45 insertions(+) diff --git a/drivers/media/v4l2-core/videobuf2-dma-contig.c b/drivers/media/v4l2-core/videobuf2-dma-contig.c index 461ae55eaa98..2ca7e798f394 100644 --- a/drivers/media/v4l2-core/videobuf2-dma-contig.c +++ b/drivers/media/v4l2-core/videobuf2-dma-contig.c @@ -443,6 +443,42 @@ static void vb2_dc_put_userptr(void *buf_priv) } /* + * To allow mapping the scatter-list into a single chunk in the DMA + * address space, the device is required to have the DMA max segment + * size parameter set to a value larger than the buffer size.
