Hi,

This patchset continues my work to to add P2PDMA support to the common
dma map operations. This allows for creating SGLs that have both P2PDMA
and regular pages which is a necessary step to allowing P2PDMA pages in
userspace.

The earlier RFC[1] generated a lot of great feedback and I heard no show
stopping objections. Thus, I've incorporated all the feedback and have
decided to post this as a proper patch series with hopes of eventually
getting it in mainline.

I'm happy to do a few more passes if anyone has any further feedback
or better ideas.

This series is based on v5.12-rc6 and a git branch can be found here:

  https://github.com/sbates130272/linux-p2pmem/  p2pdma_map_ops_v1

Thanks,

Logan

Changes since the RFC:
 * Added comment and fixed up the pci_get_slot patch. (per Bjorn)
 * Fixed glaring sg_phys() double offset bug. (per Robin)
 * Created a new map operation (dma_map_sg_p2pdma()) with a new calling
   convention instead of modifying the calling convention of
   dma_map_sg(). (per Robin)
 * Integrated the two similar pci_p2pdma_dma_map_type() and
   pci_p2pdma_map_type() functions into one (per Ira)
 * Reworked some of the logic in the map_sg() implementations into
   helpers in the p2pdma code. (per Christoph)
 * Dropped a bunch of unnecessary symbol exports (per Christoph)
 * Expanded the code in dma_pci_p2pdma_supported() for clarity. (per
   Ira and Christoph)
 * Finished off using the new dma_map_sg_p2pdma() call in rdma_rw
   and removed the old pci_p2pdma_[un]map_sg(). (per Jason)

For the user of the DMA API the idea seems reasonable enough, the next
steps to integrate with pin_user_pages() seem fairly straightfoward
too

Was there no feedback on this at all?

oops, I meant to review this a lot sooner, because this whole p2pdma thing is
actually very interesting and important...somehow it slipped but I'll take
a look now.

Still in my queue as well behind Joao's memmap consolidation series,
and a recent copy_mc_to_iter() fix series from Al.

After an initial pass through these, I think I like the approach. And I
don't have any huge structural comments or new ideas, just smaller comments
and notes.

I'll respond to each patch, but just wanted to say up front that this is
looking promising, in my opinion.

Apologies in the delay to provide feedback; climbing out of several deep trenches at the mother ship :-/

Replying to some directly, and indirectly (mostly through JohH's reply's).

General comments:
1) nits in 1,2,3,5;
    4: I agree w/JohnH & JasonG -- seems like it needs a device-layer that gets to a bus-layer, but I'm wearing my 'broader then PCI' hat in this review; I see a (classic) ChristophH refactoring and cleanup in this area, and wondering if we ought to clean it up now, since CH has done so much to clean it up and make the dma-mapping system so much easier to add/modify/review due to the broad arch (& bus) cleanup that has been done.  If that delays it too much, then add a TODO to do so.
2) 6: yes! let's not worry or even both supporting 32-bit anything wrt p2pdma.
3) 7:nit
4) 8: ok;
5) 9: ditto to JohnH's feedback on added / clearer comment & code flow (if-else).
6) 10: nits; q: should p2pdma mapping go through dma-ops so it is generalized for future interconnects (CXL, GenZ)?
7) 11: It says it is supporting p2pdma in dma-iommu's map_sg, but it seems like it is just leveraging shared code and short-circuiting IOMMU use.
8) 12-14: didn't review; letting the block/nvme/direct-io folks cover this space
9) 15: Looking to JasonG to sanitize
10) 16: cleanup; a-ok.
