I’m not sure that I would.  Here’s code I’m looking at:


static int dma_init_coherent_memory(phys_addr_t phys_addr, dma_addr_t device_addr,
			     size_t size, int flags,
			     struct dma_coherent_mem **mem)
{
	struct dma_coherent_mem *dma_mem = NULL;
	void __iomem *mem_base = NULL;
	int pages = size >> PAGE_SHIFT;
	int bitmap_size = BITS_TO_LONGS(pages) * sizeof(long);

	if ((flags & (DMA_MEMORY_MAP | DMA_MEMORY_IO)) == 0)
		goto out;
	if (!size)
		goto out;

	mem_base = ioremap(phys_addr, size);
	if (!mem_base)
		goto out;

	dma_mem = kzalloc(sizeof(struct dma_coherent_mem), GFP_KERNEL);
	if (!dma_mem)
		goto out;
	dma_mem->bitmap = kzalloc(bitmap_size, GFP_KERNEL);
	if (!dma_mem->bitmap)
		goto out;

	dma_mem->virt_base = mem_base;
	dma_mem->device_base = device_addr;
	dma_mem->pfn_base = PFN_DOWN(phys_addr);
	dma_mem->size = pages;
	dma_mem->flags = flags;
	spin_lock_init(&dma_mem->spinlock);

	/**************************************************************/
	/* Here's the only place where mem is set to non-NULL value.  */
	/**************************************************************/
	*mem = dma_mem;

	if (flags & DMA_MEMORY_MAP)
		/******************************************************/
		/* Here's where function returns.                     */
		/******************************************************/
		return DMA_MEMORY_MAP;

	return DMA_MEMORY_IO;

out:
	kfree(dma_mem);
	if (mem_base)
		iounmap(mem_base);
	return 0;
}

static int rmem_dma_device_init(struct reserved_mem *rmem, struct device *dev)
{
	struct dma_coherent_mem *mem = rmem->priv;

	if (!mem &&
	    /**********************************************************/
	    /* Note that flags & DMA_MEMORY_MAP is non-zero.          */
	    /**********************************************************/
	    dma_init_coherent_memory(rmem->base, rmem->base, rmem->size,
				     DMA_MEMORY_MAP | DMA_MEMORY_EXCLUSIVE,
				     &mem) != DMA_MEMORY_MAP) {
		pr_err("Reserved memory: failed to init DMA memory pool at %pa, size %ld MiB\n",
			&rmem->base, (unsigned long)rmem->size / SZ_1M);
		return -ENODEV;
	}
	rmem->priv = mem;
	dma_assign_coherent_memory(dev, mem);
	return 0;
}

No.  This never happens in the code that is being patched.  flags &
DMA_MEMORY_MAP is non-zero thus dma_init_coherent_memory returns
DMA_MEMORY_MAP.

Which never happens.

To me it seems that a better patch would be the following (not tested in
any capacity):

Subject: [PATCH] drivers: dma-coherent: simplify dma_init_coherent_memory
 return value

Since only dma_declare_coherent_memory cares about
dma_init_coherent_memory returning part of flags as it return value,
move the condition to the former and simplify the latter.  This in turn
makes rmem_dma_device_init less confusing.

I agree with your explain. For current code, dma_init_coherent_memory(x,x,x, DMA_MEMORY_MAP|x, x) bring DMA_MEMORY_MAP flag, so return value DMA_MEMORY_IO never happens.

Sorry for my mistake, pls drop the patch.  Thanks Michal and Russell's detail comments and review.
