We probably want to update dma_mask, coherent_dma_mask and dma_pfn_offset. Also, while look at of_configure_dma, I noticed that we consider the DMA will not be coherent for the grant-table. Oleksandr, do you know why they can't be coherent? Cheers,

It effectively means that operations on dma-bufs will end up returning errors, like [3], [4], thus not making it possible for Xen PV DRM and DMA part of gntdev driver to do what we need (dma-bufs in our use-cases allow zero-copying while using graphics buffers and many more). I didn't find any better way of achieving that, but of_configure_dma... If there is any better solution which will not break the existing functionality then I will definitely change the drivers so we do not abuse DT ) Before that, please keep in mind that merging this RFC will break Xen PV DRM + DMA buf support in gntdev...

Coherency is trickier - if the guest is allocating buffers for the PV device, which may be shared directly with hardware by the host driver, then the coherency of the PV device should really reflect that of the underlying hardware to avoid potential problems. There are some cases where the stage 2 attributes alone wouldn't be enough to correct a mismatch. Robin.

Ah, my bad, I missed that change. So, if no dummy dma ops are to be used then I believe we can apply both changes, e.g. remove of_dma_configure from both of the drivers. > > Coherency is trickier - if the guest is allocating buffers for the PV > device, which may be shared directly with hardware by the host driver, > then the coherency of the PV device should really reflect that of the > underlying hardware to avoid potential problems.

I think there's a default setup, but it is considered a driver bug to not set its mask. xen_drm_front sets the coherent_dma_mask (why only 32-bits though?), but not the dma_mask. gntdev is doing neither. I could copy out what of_dma_configure does but better for the Xen folks to decide what is needed or not and test the change. I'm not setup to test any of this. Rob

FYI I have seen the issue Oleksandr is talking about too. I confirm that the only reason for the of_configure_dma call is to get away from the dummy_dma_ops and use the default dma_ops instead. I think this should be mentioned in the commit message so that if one day the behavior regarding dummy_dma_ops changes one more time, hopefully we'll be able to figure out the issue more easily with bisection. In regards to the coherent_dma_mask and dma_mask, I can't see why gntdev would have any dma addressing limitations, so we should be able to set both to 64 bits. I also can't see why xen_drm_front would limit it to 32 bits, after all this is just the frontend, if anything it would be the backend that has a limitation. So, we should be able to set both dma_mask and coherent_dma_mask in xen_drm_front to 64 bits. Oleksandr, can you confirm?

As the comment says, this isn't a DT based device. of_dma_configure() is going to stop allowing a NULL DT node, so this needs to be fixed.
