On architectures where there is no coherent caching such as ARM use the
dma_alloc_noncontiguous API and handle manually the cache flushing using
dma_sync_sgtable().

With this patch on the affected architectures we can measure up to 20x
performance improvement in uvc_video_copy_data_work().

Eg: aarch64 with an external usb camera

Hi Ricardo,

Thank you for the patch.

You're actually switching to dma_alloc_noncontiguous() unconditionally,
not only on those architectures :-) Do I assume correctly that
dma_alloc_noncontiguous() will do the right thing on x86 too ?

Have you measured performances on x86 to ensure there's no regression ?

Maybe nitpicking a little bit, but wouldn't the code be clearer if you
created uvc_urb_dma_sync_for_cpu() and uvc_urb_dma_sync_for_device() ?
When reading

	uvc_urb_dma_sync(uvc_urb, true);

I have to constantly look up the definition of the function to figure
out what boolean value corresponds to what direction.

Given that uvc_urb_dma_sync(..., true) is always called right before
submitting the URB, we could even create a uvc_submit_urb() function
that groups the dma_sync_sgtable_for_device() and usb_submit_urb()
calls, and do without uvc_urb_dma_sync_for_device(). Up to you on this
one.

With those small changes, and assuming there's no performance regression
on x86,

Yes dma_alloc_noncontiguous does all the magic. It falls back to
alloc_dma_pages. Christoph has done a great job.

I tried it in my notebook and although the images are nothing but
pretty it is not the APIs fault. It is because the barbers are closed
due to the pandemic ;).

Yes in the early stages. I am adding the latest x86 measurements in
the commit message in v3 to make it more clear.
