If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. >From a4dba130891271084344c12537731542ec77cb85 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Stefano Stabellini <stefano.stabellini@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Fri, 21 Nov 2014 11:07:39 +0000 Subject: xen/arm/arm64: introduce xen_arch_need_swiotlb From: Stefano Stabellini <stefano.stabellini@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> commit a4dba130891271084344c12537731542ec77cb85 upstream. Introduce an arch specific function to find out whether a particular dma mapping operation needs to bounce on the swiotlb buffer. On ARM and ARM64, if the page involved is a foreign page and the device is not coherent, we need to bounce because at unmap time we cannot execute any required cache maintenance operations (we don't know how to find the pfn from the mfn). No change of behaviour for x86.
