[PATCH 00/11] Make the 32-bit ARM DMA API work with normal IOMMU DMA default domains (+ Tegra PoC)

[Mikko Perttunen]

Depending on the probe ordering, TegraDRM does not currently probe on 
kernels with CONFIG_ARM_DMA_USE_IOMMU enabled, such as with 
multi_v7_defconfig. The Tegra SMMU puts several display and 2D/3D 
clients into one IOMMU group, and the legacy 32-bit ARM DMA API path 
creates one UNMANAGED domain per device and attaches it with 
iommu_attach_device(). That only works for one device per group, so 
every client after the first fails to attach, 
iommu_device_use_default_domain() rejects the group with -EBUSY, and the 
driver goes down with it. tegra_defconfig is currently working by virtue 
of not enabling CONFIG_ARM_DMA_USE_IOMMU.

Robin suggested [1] that instead of teaching the legacy path about 
groups, we should explore modernizing the 32-bit ARM DMA code a bit by 
making it use domain cookies and have the core code own the domains, as 
is the case on other architectures. Still, ARM's own DMA code is kept to 
support existing drivers and APIs that expect it, and because dma-iommu 
is considered too big and unnecessary for 32-bit ARM.

The series is in four parts:

- Patches 1-2 are preparation in the IOMMU core:
  1. Add iommu_teardown_dma_ops, counterpart to iommu_setup_dma_ops.
  2. Add cookie type for ARM's DMA domains.
- Patches 3-6 implement the DMA API side on 32-bit ARM:
  3. Split up domain and address space management code in arch/arm/.
  4. Implement parallel dma_ops / cookie APIs on ARM side.
  5. Avoid domain allocation when IOMMU core does it.
  6. Support foreign-allocated sg_tables.
- Patch 7 enables 32-bit ARM IOMMU drivers to provide a DMA default 
  domain.
- Patches 8-11 convert Tegra:
  8. Allows deferring translation enable until driver handshake for
     selected devices.
  9-10. Removes code detaching ARM UNMANAGED DMA domains in
        Host1x/TegraDRM.
  11. Enables DMA default domain for selected Tegra devices.

None of this should have any functional effect on any device other than 
the Tegra devices enabled in patches 8-11. Other IOMMU drivers can opt 
in later. The new DMA default domains are enabled only when the IOMMU 
driver explicitly specifies a DMA domain type, just returning 0 for the 
default is not enough (unlike on arm64), keeping the current behavior.

Patches 8-11 are provided for demonstration but we can deal with them 
separately if the rest of the series is accepted.

Patches 1,2,3 are applicable independently.
Patches 4,5 depend on the previous patches.
Patch 6 can be applied independently but is only required once
  the whole series lands (by TegraDRM).
Patch 7 depends on patch 4.

Patches 1-7 only touch drivers/iommu/ and arch/arm/mm/ and associated 
headers.

Best regards,
Mikko
