If my understanding is correct, above is same to all hosts, only below
part is Exynos's behavior. Please correct me if I am wrong.
You're correct.

AFAIK, queue->dma_alignment is only used in the case of direct-io,
i.e. in
blk_rq_map_user/kern(), which are mainly used in IOCTL.
If a request's buffer len and/or buffer start addr is not aligned with
queue->dma_alignment, bio.c will make a bounce bio such that the
request
get a new buffer which starts on a new page. After the bounce bio is
ended,
the data in the bound bio will be copied to the initial buffer.
So in this fix, you are making sure the AAA and BBB are all mapped to
one
bounce bio and stay in one bi_vec, so when we do map_sg they come in
one
sglist, please correct me if I am wrong.
If my understanding is correct, what is the real use case here -
why/how
user starts a request which can generate more than one sglists whose
sizes
are all under 4KB? I am just curious.

You nearly exactly got what I’m thinking.
And I think there could be various cases making those situations,
which are definitely up to user programs. That is the case using
different memory areas to contain something.
If you want to make AAA and BBB stay in one bi_vec, they should be
continuous in memory (DDR), otherwise they will be put into two
bi_vecs and eventually become two sglist entries. My doubt is that
if user uses different memory areas to contain something as you
said, how can this fix make AAA and BBB stay in one sglist entry?
Thanks,
Can Guo.
Thanks.
