Hi Tom,

This patchset converts the intel iommu driver to the dma-iommu api.
While converting the driver I exposed a bug in the intel i915 driver which causes a huge amount of artifacts on the screen of my laptop. You can see a picture of it here:
https://github.com/pippy360/kernelPatches/blob/master/IMG_20191219_225922.jpg
This issue is most likely in the i915 driver and is most likely caused by the driver not respecting the return value of the dma_map_ops::map_sg function. You can see the driver ignoring the return value here:
https://github.com/torvalds/linux/blob/7e0165b2f1a912a06e381e91f0f4e495f4ac3736/drivers/gpu/drm/i915/gem/i915_gem_dmabuf.c#L51
Previously this didn’t cause issues because the intel map_sg always returned the same number of elements as the input scatter gather list but with the change to this dma-iommu api this is no longer the case. I wasn’t able to track the bug down to a specific line of code unfortunately.
Could someone from the intel team look at this?
I have been testing on a lenovo x1 carbon 5th generation. Let me know if there’s any more information you need.
To allow my patch set to be tested I have added a patch (patch 8/8) in this series to disable combining sg segments in the dma-iommu api which fixes the bug but it doesn't fix the actual problem.
As part of this patch series I copied the intel bounce buffer code to the dma-iommu path. The addition of the bounce buffer code took me by surprise. I did most of my development on this patch series before the bounce buffer code was added and my reimplementation in the dma-iommu path is very rushed and not properly tested but I’m running out of time to work on this patch set.
On top of that I also didn’t port over the intel tracing code from this commit:
https://github.com/torvalds/linux/commit/3b53034c268d550d9e8522e613a14ab53b8840d8#diff-6b3e7c4993f05e76331e463ab1fc87e1
So all the work in that commit is now wasted. The code will need to be removed and reimplemented in the dma-iommu path. I would like to take the time to do this but I really don’t have the time at the moment and I want to get these changes out before the iommu code changes any more.
Further to what we just discussed at LPC, I've realised that tracepoints
are actually something I could do with *right now* for debugging my Arm
DMA ops series, so if I'm going to hack something up anyway I may as
well take responsibility for polishing it into a proper patch as well :)
