    The problem is clear:
1. dma_alloc_noncoherent() return a non-cached address, and virt_to_page() need a cached logical addr (Have I named it right?)
2. mmaped dam buffer should be non-cached.

We have a ugly patch, but we want to solve the problem cleanly, so can anyone show me the way?
virt_to_page() is used in many place in mm so making it robust might
affect performance.  IMHO virt_to_page() seems too low-level as DMA
API.

If something like dma_virt_to_page(dev, cpu_addr) which can take a cpu
address returned by dma_xxx APIs was defined, MIPS can implement it
appropriately.

And then pgprot_noncached issues still exist...

I agree, and I am investigating to implement a dma_map_coherent, but It seems dma_map_coherent doesn't solve all the problem and will change a lot of code:(

It won't be that much.  You'll need to change snd_pcm_default_mmap()
in sound/core/pcm_native.c to call dma_mmap_coherent() directly
instead of nopage ops.  But, this won't work with SG-buffers, which
requires some more additional works.

I have no idea if the patch can work, the idea is not very clear now.
And I use vt686b ac97 sound driver, the driver use sgbuf, so I will write a test program tomorrow. Good sleep...:)

And if any of you can take some time look into the patch, and give some review will be appreciated:)
