[PATCH RESEND 0/4] do not use sg if not properly supported by usb controller

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

 



From: Lorenzo Bianconi <lorenzo@xxxxxxxxxx>

Use linear fragment and not a single usb scatter-gather buffer in mt76u
{tx,rx} datapath if the usb controller has sg data length constraints.
Moreover add disable_usb_sg module parameter in order to explicitly
disable scatter-gather. SG I/O is not supported by all host drivers and
some users have reported sg issues on AMD IOMMU.
This series has been tested on AMD IOMMU cpus/motherboards and on rpi3+

Changes since RFC:
- rebased on top of 'fix multiple issues in mt76u error path'
  https://patchwork.kernel.org/cover/10804919/

I am resending the series since the first attempt seems to be rejected by
the ML

Lorenzo Bianconi (4):
  mt76: usb: move mt76u_check_sg in usb.c
  mt76: usb: do not use sg buffers for mcu messages
  mt76: usb: use a linear buffer for tx/rx datapath if sg is not
    supported
  mt76: usb: introduce disable_usb_sg parameter
