3.16.47-rc1 review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Bjorn Helgaas <bhelgaas@xxxxxxxxxx> commit 3a92c319c44a7bcee9f48dff9d97d001943b54c6 upstream. PCI exposes files like /proc/bus/pci/00/00.0 in procfs. These files support operations like this: ioctl(fd, PCIIOC_MMAP_IS_IO); # request I/O port space ioctl(fd, PCIIOC_WRITE_COMBINE, 1); # request write-combining mmap(fd, ...) Write combining is useful on PCI memory space, but I don't think it makes sense on PCI I/O port space. We *could* change proc_bus_pci_ioctl() to make it impossible to set mmap_state == pci_mmap_io and write_combine at the same time, but that would break the following sequence, which is currently legal: mmap(fd, ...) # default is I/O, non-combining ioctl(fd, PCIIOC_WRITE_COMBINE, 1); # request write-combining ioctl(fd, PCIIOC_MMAP_IS_MEM); # request memory space mmap(fd, ...) # get write-combining mapping Ignore the write-combining flag when mapping I/O port space. This patch should have no functional effect, based on this analysis of all implementations of pci_mmap_page_range(): - ia64 mips parisc sh unicore32 x86 do not support mapping of I/O port space at all. - arm cris microblaze mn10300 sparc xtensa support mapping of I/O port space, but ignore the write_combine argument to pci_mmap_page_range(). - powerpc supports mapping of I/O port space and uses write_combine, and it disables write combining for I/O port space in __pci_mmap_set_pgprot(). This patch makes it possible to remove __pci_mmap_set_pgprot() from powerpc, which simplifies that path.
