The Contiguous Memory Allocator framework is a set of APIs for
allocating physically contiguous chunks of memory.

Various chips require contiguous blocks of memory to operate.  Those
chips include devices such as cameras, hardware video decoders and
encoders, etc.

The code is highly modular and customisable to suit the needs of
various users.  Set of regions reserved for CMA can be configured on
run-time and it is easy to add custom allocator algorithms if one
has such need.

+* Contiguous Memory Allocator
+
+   The Contiguous Memory Allocator (CMA) is a framework, which allows
+   setting up a machine-specific configuration for physically-contiguous
+   memory management. Memory for devices is then allocated according
+   to that configuration.
+
+   The main role of the framework is not to allocate memory, but to
+   parse and manage memory configurations, as well as to act as an
+   in-between between device drivers and pluggable allocators. It is
+   thus not tied to any memory allocation method or strategy.
+
+** Why is it needed?
+
+    Various devices on embedded systems have no scatter-getter and/or
+    IO map support and as such require contiguous blocks of memory to
+    operate.  They include devices such as cameras, hardware video
+    decoders and encoders, etc.
+
+    Such devices often require big memory buffers (a full HD frame is,
+    for instance, more then 2 mega pixels large, i.e. more than 6 MB
+    of memory), which makes mechanisms such as kmalloc() ineffective.
+
+    Some embedded devices impose additional requirements on the
+    buffers, e.g. they can operate only on buffers allocated in
+    particular location/memory bank (if system has more than one
+    memory bank) or buffers aligned to a particular memory boundary.
+
+    Development of embedded devices have seen a big rise recently
+    (especially in the V4L area) and many such drivers include their
+    own memory allocation code. Most of them use bootmem-based methods.
+    CMA framework is an attempt to unify contiguous memory allocation
+    mechanisms and provide a simple API for device drivers, while
+    staying as customisable and modular as possible.
+
+** Design
+
+    The main design goal for the CMA was to provide a customisable and
+    modular framework, which could be configured to suit the needs of
+    individual systems.  Configuration specifies a list of memory
+    regions, which then are assigned to devices.  Memory regions can
+    be shared among many device drivers or assigned exclusively to
+    one.  This has been achieved in the following ways:
+
+    1. The core of the CMA does not handle allocation of memory and
+       management of free space.  Dedicated allocators are used for
+       that purpose.
+
+       This way, if the provided solution does not match demands
+       imposed on a given system, one can develop a new algorithm and
+       easily plug it into the CMA framework.
+
+       The presented solution includes an implementation of a best-fit
+       algorithm.
+
+    2. CMA allows a run-time configuration of the memory regions it
+       will use to allocate chunks of memory from.  The set of memory
+       regions is given on command line so it can be easily changed
+       without the need for recompiling the kernel.
+
+       Each region has it's own size, alignment demand, a start
+       address (physical address where it should be placed) and an
+       allocator algorithm assigned to the region.
+
+       This means that there can be different algorithms running at
+       the same time, if different devices on the platform have
+       distinct memory usage characteristics and different algorithm
+       match those the best way.
+
+    3. When requesting memory, devices have to introduce themselves.
+       This way CMA knows who the memory is allocated for.  This
+       allows for the system architect to specify which memory regions
+       each device should use.
+
+       3a. Devices can also specify a "kind" of memory they want.
+           This makes it possible to configure the system in such
+           a way, that a single device may get memory from different
+           memory regions, depending on the "kind" of memory it
+           requested.  For example, a video codec driver might want to
+           allocate some shared buffers from the first memory bank and
+           the other from the second to get the highest possible
+           memory throughput.
+
+    4. For greater flexibility and extensibility, the framework allows
+       device drivers to register private regions of reserved memory
+       which then may be used only by them.
+
+       As an effect, if a driver would not use the rest of the CMA
+       interface, it can still use CMA allocators and other
+       mechanisms.
+
+       4a. Early in boot process, device drivers can also request the
+           CMA framework to a reserve a region of memory for them
+           which then will be used as a private region.
+
+           This way, drivers do not need to directly call bootmem,
+           memblock or similar early allocator but merely register an
+           early region and the framework will handle the rest
+           including choosing the right early allocator.
+
+** Use cases
+
+    Lets analyse some imaginary system that uses the CMA to see how
+    the framework can be used and configured.
+
+
+    We have a platform with a hardware video decoder and a camera each
+    needing 20 MiB of memory in worst case.  Our system is written in
+    such a way though that the two devices are never used at the same
+    time and memory for them may be shared.  In such a system the
+    following two configuration strings would be used:
+
+        static char regions[]  __initdata = "region=20M";
+        static char map[]      __initdata = "video,camera=region";
+
+        cma_set_defaults(regions, map, NULL);
+
+    .regions instructs CMA to allocate a region of 20 MiB and use the
+    first available memory allocator on it.  .map says that drivers
+    named "video" and "camera" are to be granted memory from the
+    previously defined region.
+
+    This can in fact be written in simpler way:
+
+        static       char regions[]  __initdata = "region=20M";
+
+        cma_set_defaults(regions, NULL, NULL);
+
+    By omitting the .map attribute, we say that all drivers are to use
+    all the regions defined with the first argument.  Generally, if
+    a device/kind pair is not matched by any rule from the .map it is
+    granted access to all regions from the .regions attribute.
+
+    We can see, that because the devices share the same region of
+    memory, we save 20 MiB of memory, compared to the situation when
+    each of the devices would reserve 20 MiB of memory for itself.
+
+
+    Now, let say that we have also many other smaller devices and we
+    want them to share some smaller pool of memory.  For instance 5
+    MiB.  This can be achieved in several ways:
+
+        static char regions[]  __initdata = "region=20M;common=5M";
+        static char map[]      __initdata =
+                "video,camera=region;*/*=common";
+
+        cma_set_defaults(regions, map, NULL);
+
+    This instructs CMA to reserve two regions and let video and camera
+    use region "region" whereas all other devices should use region
+    "common".  Alternatively, we might say:
+
+        static char regions[]  __initdata = "region=20M;common=5M";
+        static char map[]      __initdata = "video,camera=region";
+        static char asterisk[] __initdata = "common";
+
+        cma_set_defaults(regions, map, asterisk);
+
+    It works in similar fashion, expect by specifying the .asterisk
+    attribute, we say that devices not matched by any rule from .map
+    should access regions listed in .asterisk attribute.
+
+
+    Later on, after some development of the system, it can now run
+    video decoder and camera at the same time.  The 20 MiB region is
+    no longer enough for the two to share.  A quick fix can be made to
+    grant each of those devices separate regions:
+
+        static char regions[]  __initdata = "v=20M;c=20M;common=5M";
+        static char map[]      __initdata = "video=v;camera=c";
+        static char asterisk[] __initdata = "common";
+
+        cma_set_defaults(regions, map, asterisk);
+
+    This solution also shows how with CMA you can assign private pools
+    of memory to each device if that is required.
+
+    Allocation mechanisms can be replaced dynamically in a similar
+    manner as well. Let's say that during testing, it has been
+    discovered that, for a given shared region of 40 MiB,
+    fragmentation has become a problem.  It has been observed that,
+    after some time, it becomes impossible to allocate buffers of the
+    required sizes. So to satisfy our requirements, we would have to
+    reserve a larger shared region beforehand.
+
+    But fortunately, you have also managed to develop a new allocation
+    algorithm -- Neat Allocation Algorithm or "na" for short -- which
+    satisfies the needs for both devices even on a 30 MiB region.  The
+    configuration can be then quickly changed to:
+
+        static char regions[]  __initdata = "region=30M:na;common=5M";
+        static char map[]      __initdata = "video,camera=region";
+        static char asterisk[] __initdata = "common";
+
+        cma_set_defaults(regions, map, asterisk);
+
+    This shows how you can develop your own allocation algorithms if
+    the ones provided with CMA do not suit your needs and easily
+    replace them, without the need to modify CMA core or even
+    recompiling the kernel.
+
+** Technical Details
+
+*** The attributes
+
+    As shown above, CMA is configured by a set of attributes: regions,
+    map and asterisk.  The first one specifies regions that are to be
+    reserved for CMA.  The second one specifies what regions each
+    device is assigned to.  The third one specifies what regions
+    devices without rule in map should have access to.
+
+**** Regions
+
+     The format of the "regions" attribute is as follows:
+
+         regions-attr  ::= [ regions [ ';' ] ]
+         regions       ::= region [ ';' regions ]
+
+         region        ::= [ '-' ] REG-NAME
+                             '=' size
+                           [ '@' start ]
+                           [ '/' alignment ]
+                           [ ':' ALLOC-NAME ]
+
+         size          ::= MEMSIZE   // size of the region
+         start         ::= MEMSIZE   // desired start address of
+                                     // the region
+         alignment     ::= MEMSIZE   // alignment of the start
+                                     // address of the region
+
+     REG-NAME specifies the name of the region.  All regions given at
+     via the regions attribute need to have a name.  Moreover, all
+     regions need to have a unique name.  If two regions have the same
+     name it is unspecified which will be used when requesting to
+     allocate memory from region with given name.
+
+     ALLOC-NAME specifies the name of allocator to be used with the
+     region.  If no allocator name is provided, the "default"
+     allocator will be used with the region.  The "default" allocator
+     is, of course, the first allocator that has been registered. ;)
+
+     size, start and alignment are specified in bytes with suffixes
+     that memparse() accept.  If start is given, the region will be
+     reserved on given starting address (or at close to it as
+     possible).  If alignment is specified, the region will be aligned
+     to given value.
+
+     This can be also specified by the command line argument "cma".
+     If it is, platform's defaults won't be used.
+
+**** Map
+
+     The format of the "map" attribute is as follows:
+
+         map-attr      ::= [ rules [ ';' ] ]
+         rules         ::= rule [ ';' rules ]
+         rule          ::= patterns '=' regions
+
+         patterns      ::= pattern [ ',' patterns ]
+
+         regions       ::= REG-NAME [ ',' regions ] | '*'
+                       // list of regions to try to allocate memory
+                       // from
+
+         pattern       ::= dev-pattern [ '/' kind-pattern ]
+                       | '/' kind-pattern
+                       // pattern request must match for the rule to
+                       // apply; the first rule that matches is
+                       // applied; if dev-pattern part is omitted
+                       // value identical to the one used in previous
+                       // pattern is assumed
+
+         dev-pattern   ::= PATTERN-STR
+                       // pattern that device name must match for the
+                       // rule to apply.
+         kind-pattern  ::= PATTERN-STR
+                       // pattern that "kind" of memory (provided by
+                       // device) must match for the rule to apply.
+
+     The "map" attribute is a sequence of rules which specify what
+     regions should given (device, kind) pair use.  The first rule
+     that matches is applied.
+
+     For rule to match, the pattern must match (dev, kind) pair.
+     Pattern consist of the part before and after slash.  The first
+     part must match device name and the second part must match kind.
+
+     If the first part is empty, the device name is assumed to match
+     iff it matched in previous pattern.
+
+     Not specifying the second part matches only empty, or
+     not-specified kind.
+
+     Patterns may contain question marks which mach any characters and
+     end with an asterisk which match the rest of the string
+     (including nothing).
+
+     The '*' as the list of regions means to use all the regions
+     listed in the "asterisk" attribute.  Moreover, if no rule matches
+     a device the list of regions from the "asterisk" attribute is
+     used as well (ie. a "*/*=*" rule is assumed at the end).
+
+     This attribute is accessible via SysFS and can be changed at
+     run-time by writing to /sys/kernel/mm/contiguous/map.
+
+**** Asterisk
+
+     The format of the "asterisk" attribute is as follows:
+
+         asterisk-attr ::= [ regions ]
+         regions       ::= REG-NAME [ ',' regions ]
+
+     If no rule from "map" attribute match given driver, the regions
+     specified by the "asterisk" attribute are used.
+
+     If this attribute is not specified by call to cma_set_defaults()
+     it is built automatically from the regions listed in the
+     "regions" rule.  All regions are included expect for the ones
+     which name is prefixed by a minus sign.
+
+     For instance, the following:
+
+         static char regions[]  __initdata = "region=20M;common=5M";
+         static char map[]      __initdata = "video,camera=region";
+         static char asterisk[] __initdata = "common";
+
+     can be replaced by:
+
+         static char regions[]  __initdata = "-region=20M;common=5M";
+         static char map[]      __initdata = "video,camera=region";
+
+     The biggest difference is that if user specifies the "cma"
+     command line parameter and platform did not specifies the
+     "asterisk" attribute it will be built from the user-supplied
+     "cma" parameter.  If "asterisk" attribute were to be specified by
+     platform code, it would not be created from command line
+     parameter.
+
+     This attribute is accessible via SysFS and can be changed at
+     run-time by writing to /sys/kernel/mm/contiguous/asterisk.
+
+**** Examples
+
+     Some examples (whitespace added for better readability):
+
+         cma = r1 = 64M       // 64M region
+                    @512M       // starting at address 512M
+                                // (or at least as near as possible)
+                    /1M         // make sure it's aligned to 1M
+                    :foo(bar);  // uses allocator "foo" with "bar"
+                                // as parameters for it
+               r2 = 64M       // 64M region
+                    /1M;        // make sure it's aligned to 1M
+                                // uses the first available allocator
+               r3 = 64M       // 64M region
+                    @512M       // starting at address 512M
+                    :foo;       // uses allocator "foo" with no parameters
+
+         cma_map = foo = r1;
+                       // device foo with kind==NULL uses region r1
+
+                   foo/quaz = r2;  // OR:
+                   /quaz = r2;
+                       // device foo with kind == "quaz" uses region r2
+
+                   foo/* = r3;     // OR:
+                   /* = r3;
+                       // device foo with any other kind uses region r3
+
+                   bar/* = r1,r2;
+                       // device bar with any kind uses region r1 or r2
+
+                   baz?/a* , baz?/b* = r3;
+                       // devices named baz? where ? is any character
+                       // with kind being a string starting with "a" or
+                       // "b" use r3
+
+*** The device and kind of memory
+
+    The name of the device is taken form the device structure.  It is
+    not possible to use CMA if driver does not register a device
+    (actually this can be overcome if a fake device structure is
+    provided with at least the name set).
+
+    The kind of memory is an optional argument provided by the device
+    whenever it requests memory chunk.  In many cases this can be
+    ignored but sometimes it may be required for some devices.
+
+    For instance, let say that there are two memory banks and for
+    performance reasons a device uses buffers in both of them.  In
+    such case, the device driver would define two kinds and use it for
+    different buffers.  CMA attributes could look as follows:
+
+         static char regions[]  __initdata = "a=32M at 0;b=32M at 512M";
+         static char map[]      __initdata = "foo/a=a;foo/b=b";
+
+    And whenever the driver allocated the memory it would specify the
+    kind of memory:
+
+        buffer1 = cma_alloc(dev, "a", 1 << 20, 0);
+        buffer2 = cma_alloc(dev, "b", 1 << 20, 0);
+
+    If it was needed to try to allocate from the other bank as well if
+    the dedicated one is full, the attributes could be changed to:
+
+         static char regions[]  __initdata = "a=32M at 0;b=32M at 512M";
+         static char map[]      __initdata = "foo/a=a,b;foo/b=b,a";
+
+    On the other hand, if the same driver was used on a system with
+    only one bank, the command line could be changed to:
+
+         static char regions[]  __initdata = "r=64";
+         static char map[]      __initdata = "foo/*=r";
+
+    without the need to change the driver at all.
+
+*** Device API
+
+    There are four calls provided by the CMA framework to devices.  To
+    allocate a chunk of memory cma_alloc() function needs to be used:
+
+        dma_addr_t cma_alloc(const struct device *dev, const char *kind,
+                             size_t size, dma_addr_t alignment);
+
+    If required, device may specify alignment in bytes that the chunk
+    need to satisfy.  It have to be a power of two or zero.  The
+    chunks are always aligned at least to a page.
+
+    The kind specifies the kind of memory as described to in the
+    previous subsection.  If device driver does not use notion of
+    memory kinds it's safe to pass NULL as the kind.
+
+    The basic usage of the function is just a:
+
+        addr = cma_alloc(dev, NULL, size, 0);
+
+    The function returns physical address of allocated chunk or
+    a value that evaluated true if checked with IS_ERR_VALUE(), so the
+    correct way for checking for errors is:
+
+        unsigned long addr = cma_alloc(dev, size);
+        if (IS_ERR_VALUE(addr))
+                return (int)addr;
+        /* Allocated */
+
+    (Make sure to include <linux/err.h> which contains the definition
+    of the IS_ERR_VALUE() macro.)
+
+
+    Allocated chunk is freed via a cma_put() function:
+
+        int cma_put(dma_addr_t addr);
+
+    It takes physical address of the chunk as an argument and
+    decreases it's reference counter.  If the counter reaches zero the
+    chunk is freed.  Most of the time users do not need to think about
+    reference counter and simply use the cma_put() as a free call.
+
+    If one, however, were to share a chunk with others built in
+    reference counter may turn out to be handy.  To increment it, one
+    needs to use cma_get() function:
+
+        int cma_get(dma_addr_t addr);
+
+
+    The last function is the cma_info() which returns information
+    about regions assigned to given (dev, kind) pair.  Its syntax is:
+
+        int cma_info(struct cma_info *info,
+                     const struct device *dev,
+                     const char *kind);
+
+    On successful exit it fills the info structure with lower and
+    upper bound of regions, total size and number of regions assigned
+    to given (dev, kind) pair.
+
+**** Dynamic and private regions
+
+     In the basic setup, regions are provided via command line argument
+     and then allocated by platform initialisation code (which usually
+     calls cma_regions_allocate() function).
+
+     It is, however, possible to create and add regions dynamically
+     using cma_region_register() function.
+
+         int cma_region_register(struct cma_region *reg);
+
+     The region does not have to have name.  If it does not, it won't
+     be accessed via standard mapping (the one provided with cma_map
+     parameter).  Such regions are private and to allocate chunk on
+     them, one needs to call:
+
+         dma_addr_t cma_alloc_from_region(struct cma_region *reg,
+                                          size_t size, dma_addr_t alignment);
+
+     It is just like cma_alloc() expect one specifies what region to
+     allocate memory from.  The region must have been registered.
+
+**** Allocating from region specified by name
+
+     If a driver preferred allocating from a region or list of regions
+     it knows name of it can use a different call simmilar to the
+     previous:
+
+         dma_addr_t cma_alloc_from(const char *regions,
+                                   size_t size, dma_addr_t alignment);
+
+     The first argument is a comma-separated list of regions the
+     driver desires CMA to try and allocate from.  The list is
+     terminated by NUL byte or a semicolon.
+
+     Similarly, there is a call for requesting information about named
+     regions:
+
+        int cma_info_about(struct cma_info *info, const char *regions);
+
+     Generally, it should not be needed to use those interfaces but
+     they are provided nevertheless.
+
+**** Registering early regions
+
+     An early region is a region that is managed by CMA early during
+     boot process.  It's platforms responsibility to reserve memory
+     for early regions.  Later on, when CMA initialises early regions
+     with reserved memory are registered as normal regions.
+     Registering an early region may be a way for a device to request
+     a private pool of memory without worrying about actually
+     reserving the memory:
+
+         int cma_early_region_register(struct cma_region *reg);
+
+     This needs to be done quite early on in boot process, before
+     platform traverses the cma_early_regions list to reserve memory.
+
+     When boot process ends, device driver may see whether the region
+     was reserved (by checking reg->reserved flag) and if so, whether
+     it was successfully registered as a normal region (by checking
+     the reg->registered flag).  If that is the case, device driver
+     can use normal API calls to use the region.
+
+*** Allocator operations
+
+    Creating an allocator for CMA needs four functions to be
+    implemented.
+
+
+    The first two are used to initialise an allocator far given driver
+    and clean up afterwards:
+
+        int  cma_foo_init(struct cma_region *reg);
+        void cma_foo_done(struct cma_region *reg);
+
+    The first is called when allocater is attached to region.  The
+    cma_region structure has saved starting address of the region as
+    well as its size.  Any data that allocate associated with the
+    region can be saved in private_data field.
+
+    The second call cleans up and frees all resources the allocator
+    has allocated for the region.  The function can assume that all
+    chunks allocated form this region have been freed thus the whole
+    region is free.
+
+
+    The two other calls are used for allocating and freeing chunks.
+    They are:
+
+        struct cma_chunk *cma_foo_alloc(struct cma_region *reg,
+                                        size_t size, dma_addr_t alignment);
+        void cma_foo_free(struct cma_chunk *chunk);
+
+    As names imply the first allocates a chunk and the other frees
+    a chunk of memory.  It also manages a cma_chunk object
+    representing the chunk in physical memory.
+
+    Either of those function can assume that they are the only thread
+    accessing the region.  Therefore, allocator does not need to worry
+    about concurrency.  Moreover, all arguments are guaranteed to be
+    valid (i.e. page aligned size, a power of two alignment no lower
+    the a page size).
+
+
+    When allocator is ready, all that is left is to register it by
+    calling cma_allocator_register() function:
+
+            int cma_allocator_register(struct cma_allocator *alloc);
+
+    The argument is an structure with pointers to the above functions
+    and allocator's name.  The whole call may look something like
+    this:
+
+        static struct cma_allocator alloc = {
+                .name    = "foo",
+                .init    = cma_foo_init,
+                .cleanup = cma_foo_cleanup,
+                .alloc   = cma_foo_alloc,
+                .free    = cma_foo_free,
+        };
+        return cma_allocator_register(&alloc);
+
+    The name ("foo") will be available to use with command line
+    argument.
+
+*** Integration with platform
+
+    There is one function that needs to be called form platform
+    initialisation code.  That is the cma_early_regions_reserve()
+    function:
+
+        void cma_early_regions_reserve(int (*reserve)(struct cma_region *reg));
+
+    It traverses list of all of the regions given on command line and
+    reserves memory for them.  The only argument is a callback
+    function used to reserve the region.  Passing NULL as the argument
+    makes the function use cma_early_region_reserve() function which
+    uses bootmem and memblock for allocating.
+
+    Alternatively, platform code could traverse the cma_early_regions
+    list by itself but this should not be necessary.
+
+
+    Platform has also a way of providing default attributes for CMA,
+    cma_set_defaults() function is used for that purpose:
+
+        int __init cma_set_defaults(char *regions, const char *map,
+                                    const char *asterisk);
+
+    It needs to be called after early params have been parsed but
+    prior to reserving regions.  It let one specify the three
+    attributes used to configure CMA.  Any of the pointer may point to
+    a string in __initdata section.  The regions argument must be
+    modifyable though.
+
+** Future work
+
+    In the future, implementation of mechanisms that would allow the
+    free space inside the regions to be used as page cache, filesystem
+    buffers or swap devices is planned.  With such mechanisms, the
+    memory would not be wasted when not used.
+
+    Because all allocations and freeing of chunks pass the CMA
+    framework it can follow what parts of the reserved memory are
+    freed and what parts are allocated.  Tracking the unused memory
+    would let CMA use it for other purposes such as page cache, I/O
+    buffers, swap, etc.
