[PATCH] net: designware: dma_sync_single_for_device buffer before passing to HW

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

 



For cache-incoherent DMA, dma_sync_single_for_cpu with DMA_FROM_DEVICE
invalidates the cache, so no stale lines in the cache hide what the
hardware had written to RAM.

On the same systems, dma_sync_single_for_device with DMA_FROM_DEVICE also
invalidates the cache, so no dirty lines from the CPU are evicted
clobbering what the hardware had written to RAM.

In rx_descs_init, the RX buffers need to be invalidated before transferring
ownership to the network controller, therefore we should use
dma_sync_single_for_device for clarity, even if it doesn't change behavior.
