The driver does look rather broken. Let's first read up when dma_cache_sync()
should be used:
void
dma_cache_sync(struct device *dev, void *vaddr, size_t size,
enum dma_data_direction direction)
Do a partial sync of memory that was allocated by
dma_alloc_noncoherent(), starting at virtual address vaddr and
continuing on for size. Again, you *must* observe the cache line
boundaries when doing this.
Note "memory that was allocated by dma_alloc_noncoherent()".
Now, let's look at the driver:
static int map_sg_to_lli(struct scatterlist *sg, int num_elems,
struct lli *lli, dma_addr_t dma_lli,
void __iomem *dmadr_addr, int dir)
{
...
dma_cache_sync(NULL, lli, (sizeof(struct lli) * idx),
DMA_BIDIRECTIONAL);
}
static int dma_dwc_xfer_setup(struct scatterlist *sg, int num_elems,
struct lli *lli, dma_addr_t dma_lli,
void __iomem *addr, int dir)
{
/* Convert SG list to linked list of items (LLIs) for AHB DMA */
num_lli = map_sg_to_lli(sg, num_elems, lli, dma_lli, addr, dir);
}
dma_chan = dma_dwc_xfer_setup(sg, qc->n_elem, hsdevp->llit[tag],
hsdevp->llit_dma[tag],
(void *__iomem)(&hsdev->sata_dwc_regs->\
dmadr), qc->dma_dir);
for (i = 0; i < SATA_DWC_QCMD_MAX; i++) {
hsdevp->llit[i] = dma_alloc_coherent(pdev,
SATA_DWC_DMAC_LLI_TBL_SZ,
&(hsdevp->llit_dma[i]),
GFP_ATOMIC);
So, hsdevp->llit[x] is allocated using dma_alloc_*coherent*(), not
dma_alloc_*noncohernet*(), so dma_cache_sync() should not be used
according to the DMA API documentation.
Moreover, that GFP_ATOMIC flag looks mightily suspicious - we've done
a previous allocation using kzalloc(, GFP_KERNEL), so we aren't in an
atomic region, so why use GFP_ATOMIC there?
It doesn't look like it'll pass sparse checks either:
struct sata_dwc_device {
u8 *reg_base;
struct sata_dwc_regs *sata_dwc_regs; /* DW Synopsys SATA specific */
};
u8 *base = NULL;
base = of_iomap(ofdev->dev.of_node, 0);
hsdev->reg_base = base;
hsdev->sata_dwc_regs = (void *__iomem)(base + SATA_DWC_REG_OFFSET);
Maybe it should be moved to drivers/staging? :)
