Hi,
These two patches fixes the dma mapping functions when the system is
cache coherent. The first one allows to fix an issue we have on Armada
375/38x with the PL310 that's why it is tagged for stable too.
Thanks,
Gregory
PS: the mailing list was missing in the recipient list of the v7. It
was a mistake and I realized it only now. If needed I can repost it
with the few exchange we had with Russell King.
Changelog
v7 -> v8:
- Use a flag instead of a boolean for checking the coherency. It
improve the readability of the code. Suggested by Russell King.
- Consider that when coherency is set, it's for both L1 and L2 caches
- Use the arm_dma_alloc_args struct to pass the coherency status when
possible. Suggested by Rabin Vincent
- Remove the Tested-by flag from Marcin because of the modifications
around the L1 cache management in this series.
v6 -> v7:
- Renamed is coherent by l2_coherent as suggested by Russell
v5 -> v6:
- Rebased on v4.6-rc1
v4 -> v5
- Keep the dmac_* function outside the !is_coherent case.
v3 -> v4:
- Rebased on v4.3-rc1
- Fix conflict with commit "21caf3a765b0 ARM: 8398/1: arm DMA: Fix
allocation from CMA for coherent DMA"
v2 -> v3:
- Fix comments in patch 1 as suggested by Catalin.
- Fix build issues in patch 2 (by using the multi_v7_defconfig +
CONFIG_ROCKCHIP_IOMMU).
- Add the arm_coherent_iommu_mmap_attrs function.
