Currently __iommu_dma_alloc_pages assumes that all the IOMMU support
the granule of PAGE_SIZE. It call alloc_page to try allocating memory
in the last time. Fortunately the mininum pagesize in all the
current IOMMU is SZ_4K, so this works well.

But there may be a case in which the mininum granule of IOMMU may be
larger than PAGE_SIZE, then it will abort as the IOMMU cann't map the
discontinuous memory within a granule. For example, the pgsize_bitmap
of the IOMMU only has SZ_16K while the PAGE_SIZE is SZ_4K, then we
have to prepare SZ_16K continuous memory at least for each a granule
iommu mapping.

Did you find a driver/platform that actually needs this? I certainly
think it's possible, but we don't necessarily need to fix it if it's
not broken yet! Just adding a comment would be enough.

Either way, a couple of review comments inline.

Isn't this handled by the loop condition?

I think Yong Wu was adding this patch in response to your request from
v1 of <https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/8487511/>.  Fixing this
seemed like a separate issue so I asked Yong Wu to make two patches
rather than sticking this fix in the patch as his original.  Hopefully
this makes sense.

He changed the loop condition to be ">= min_order" instead of "> 0",
so now we can get here with an order == 0.  This makes sense because
when min_order is not 0 you still want to run the code to split the
pages and it is sane not to duplicate that below.

Maybe I'm misunderstanding, though.  Perhaps you can explain how you
think this code should look?

My reading of the code was that we require order >= min_order to enter
the loop. Given that order doesn't change between the loop header and the
if (!order) check, then that must mean we can enter the loop body with
order == 0 and order >= min_order, which means that min_order is allowed
to be negative. That feels weird.

Am I barking up the wrong tree?

I don't think min_order can be negative.  Certainly we could enter the
loop with order == 0 and min_order == 0, though.


Some examples:

order = 0, min_order = 0
-> Want alloc_pages _without_ __GFP_NORETRY.  OK
-> If alloc_pages fails, return NULL.  OK
-> If alloc pages succeeds, don't need splitting since single page.  OK

order = 1, min_order = 1
-> Want alloc_pages _without_ __GFP_NORETRY.  OK
-> If alloc_pages fails, return NULL.  OK
-> If alloc pages succeeds, DO need splitting.  OK

order = 1, min_order = 0
-> Want alloc_pages with __GFP_NORETRY.  OK
-> If alloc_pages fails, try order = 0.  OK
-> If alloc pages succeeds, DO need splitting.  OK

order = 2, min_order = 1
-> Want alloc_pages with __GFP_NORETRY.  OK
-> If alloc_pages fails, try order = 1.  OK
-> If alloc pages succeeds, DO need splitting.  OK


I think those are all right.  Did I mess up?  You could certainly
structure the loop in a different way but you need to make sure you
handle all of those cases.  If you have an alternate structure that
handles all those, let's consider it.

... and in that case, PageCompound will be false, and we'll call split_page
which won't do anything, so we break out.

Right, I don't think the code is broken, I just think the !order check is
confusing and not needed.

Ah ha!  Got it.  I didn't dig into split_page() to see that it was a
no-op when "order == 0".  I just know that the old code didn't call
split_page() with order == 0 so I assumed that was wise to keep.  If
we don't need to keep that then agreed that the "if" test can simply
be removed.  :)
