I am assuming that this happens on an arm and that the dma_map_sg_attrs and dma_sync_sg_* functions used are arm_iommu_map_sg() and arm_iommu_sync_sg_* as implemented in arch/arm/mm/dma-mapping.c. Now, as I understand it (and my understanding may very well be flawed!) the map_sg function concatenates SG entries if possible, so it may return fewer entries. But the dma_sync_sg functions use those updated SG entries, so the full buffer should be covered by this. Using orig_nents will actually sync parts of the buffer twice! The first nents entries already cover the full buffer so any remaining entries up to orig_nents will just duplicate parts of the buffer. So this patch makes no sense in the current code. If I understand your log text correctly this patch goes on top of Sakari Ailus' vb2 sync patch series. So if it wasn't needed before, but it is needed after his patch series, then the problem is in that patch series. In any case, I need some help understanding this patch. And *if* this patch is correct, then the same thing should likely be done for videobuf2-dma-sg.c.
