Re: [PATCHv7 9/9] ARM: dma-mapping: add support for IOMMU mapper

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

 



Sorry for digging this very late. But as part of integrating dma_map v7 & sysmmu v12 on 3.3-rc5, I am facing below issue:

a) By un-selecting IOMMU in menu config, I am able to allocate memory in vb2-dma-contig

b) When I enable SYSMMU support for the IP's, I am receiving below fault:

Unhandled fault: external abort on non-linefetch (0x818) at 0xb6f55000

I think this has something to do with the access to the SYSMMU registers for writing the page table. Has anyone of you faced this issue while testing these(dma_map+iommu) patches on kernel mentioned above? This must be something related to recent changes, as I didn't have issues with these patches on 3.2 kernel.

Regards,
Subash

This looks that the given sg list specifies the list of physical
memory chunks and
the list of IO virtual memory chunks at the same time after calling
arm_dma_map_sg().
It can happen that dma_address and dma_length of a sg entry does not
correspond to
physical memory information of the sg entry.

I think it is beneficial for handling IO virtual memory.

However, I worry about any other problems caused by a single sg entry contains
information from 2 different context.
