3a9ad0b4fd PCI: Add pci_bus_addr_t
David Ahern reported that d63e2e1f3d ("sparc/PCI: Clip bridge windows
to fit in upstream windows") fails to boot on sparc/T5-8:

  pci 0000:06:00.0: reg 0x184: can't handle BAR above 4GB (bus address 0x110204000)

The problem is that sparc64 assumed that dma_addr_t only needed to hold DMA
addresses, i.e., bus addresses returned via the DMA API (dma_map_single(),
etc.), while the PCI core assumed dma_addr_t could hold *any* bus address,
including raw BAR values.  On sparc64, all DMA addresses fit in 32 bits, so
dma_addr_t is a 32-bit type.  However, BAR values can be 64 bits wide, so
they don't fit in a dma_addr_t.  d63e2e1f3d added new checking that
tripped over this mismatch.

Add pci_bus_addr_t, which is wide enough to hold any PCI bus address,
including both raw BAR values and DMA addresses.  This will be 64 bits
on 64-bit platforms and on platforms with a 64-bit dma_addr_t.  Then
dma_addr_t only needs to be wide enough to hold addresses from the DMA API.

least as wide as dma_addr_t, documentation]

88a984ba07 DMA-API: Change dma_declare_coherent_memory() CPU address to phys_addr_t
dma_declare_coherent_memory() takes two addresses for a region of memory: a
"bus_addr" and a "device_addr".  I think the intent is that "bus_addr" is
the physical address a *CPU* would use to access the region, and
"device_addr" is the bus address the *device* would use to address the
region.

Rename "bus_addr" to "phys_addr" and change its type to phys_addr_t.
Most callers already supply a phys_addr_t for this argument.  The others
supply a 32-bit integer (a constant, unsigned int, or __u32) and need no
change.

Use "unsigned long", not phys_addr_t, to hold PFNs.

No functional change (this could theoretically fix a truncation in a config
with 32-bit dma_addr_t and 64-bit phys_addr_t, but I don't think there are
any such cases involving this code).

77f2ea2f8d DMA-API: Clarify physical/bus address distinction
The DMA-API documentation sometimes refers to "physical addresses" when it
really means "bus addresses."  Sometimes these are identical, but they may
be different if the bridge leading to the bus performs address translation.
Update the documentation to use "bus address" when appropriate.

Also, consistently capitalize "DMA", use parens with function names, use
dev_printk() in examples, and reword a few sections for clarity.

No functional change; documentation changes only.

6c9c6d6301 dma-debug: New interfaces to debug dma mapping errors
Add dma-debug interface debug_dma_mapping_error() to debug
drivers that fail to check dma mapping errors on addresses
returned by dma_map_single() and dma_map_page() interfaces.
This interface clears a flag set by debug_dma_map_page() to
indicate that dma_mapping_error() has been called by the
driver. When driver does unmap, debug_dma_unmap() checks the
flag and if this flag is still set, prints warning message
that includes call trace that leads up to the unmap. This
interface can be called from dma_mapping_error() routines to
enable dma mapping error check debugging.

Tested: Intel iommu and swiotlb (iommu=soft) on x86-64 with
        CONFIG_DMA_API_DEBUG enabled and disabled.

3b9c6c11f5 dma-mapping: remove dma_is_consistent API
Architectures implement dma_is_consistent() in different ways (some
misinterpret the definition of API in DMA-API.txt).  So it hasn't been so
useful for drivers.  We have only one user of the API in tree.  Unlikely
out-of-tree drivers use the API.

Even if we fix dma_is_consistent() in some architectures, it doesn't look
useful at all.  It was invented long ago for some old systems that can't
allocate coherent memory at all.  It's better to export only APIs that are
definitely necessary for drivers.

Let's remove this API.

6a1961f49e dma-mapping: dma-mapping.h: add dma_set_coherent_mask
dma_set_coherent_mask corresponds to pci_set_consistent_dma_mask.  This is
necessary to move to the generic device model DMA API from the PCI bus
specific API in the long term.

dma_set_coherent_mask works in the exact same way that
pci_set_consistent_dma_mask does.  So this patch also changes
pci_set_consistent_dma_mask to call dma_set_coherent_mask.

0acedc124a dma-mapping.h: add the dma_unmap state API
Adds the following macros:

DECLARE_DMA_UNMAP_ADDR(ADDR_NAME)
DECLARE_DMA_UNMAP_LEN(LEN_NAME)
dma_unmap_addr(PTR, ADDR_NAME)
dma_unmap_addr_set(PTR, ADDR_NAME, VAL)
dma_unmap_len(PTR, LEN_NAME)
dma_unmap_len_set(PTR, LEN_NAME, VAL)

The API corresponds to the pci_unmap state API.  We'll move to this new
generic API from the PCI specific API in the long term.  As
include/asm-generic/pci-dma-compat.h does, the pci_unmap API simply calls
the new generic API for some time.

8127bfc564 DMA-API.txt: remove dma_sync_single_range description
dma_sync_single_for_cpu/for_device supports a partial sync so there is no
point to have dma_sync_single_range (also dma_sync_single was obsoleted
long ago, replaced with dma_sync_single_for_cpu/for_device).

There is no user of dma_sync_single_range() in mainline and only Alpha
architecture supports dma_sync_single_range().  So it's unlikely that
someone out of the tree uses it.

9705ef7ec8 DMA-API.txt: add dma_sync_single/sg API description
This adds the description of the following eight function:

dma_sync_single_for_cpu
pci_dma_sync_single_for_cpu
dma_sync_single_for_device
pci_dma_sync_single_for_device
dma_sync_sg_for_cpu
pci_dma_sync_sg_for_cpu
dma_sync_sg_for_device
pci_dma_sync_sg_for_device

It was unclear that the API permits a partial sync (some network drivers
already do though).  I made it clear that the sync_single API can do a
partial sync but the sync_sg API can't.

We could do a partial sync with the sync_sg API too, however, it's
difficult for driver writers to correctly use the sync_sg API for a
partial sync since the scatterlists passed in to the mapping API can't be
modified.  It's unlikely that driver writers want to do a partial sync
with the sync_sg API (because the sync_sg API are usually used for block
drivers).  So I think that it's better to forbid a partial sync with the
sync_sg API.

8d8bb39b9e dma-mapping: add the device argument to dma_mapping_error()
Add per-device dma_mapping_ops support for CONFIG_X86_64 as POWER
architecture does:

This enables us to cleanly fix the Calgary IOMMU issue that some devices
are not behind the IOMMU (http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/5/8/423).

I think that per-device dma_mapping_ops support would be also helpful for
KVM people to support PCI passthrough but Andi thinks that this makes it
difficult to support the PCI passthrough (see the above thread).  So I
CC'ed this to KVM camp.  Comments are appreciated.

A pointer to dma_mapping_ops to struct dev_archdata is added.  If the
pointer is non NULL, DMA operations in asm/dma-mapping.h use it.  If it's
NULL, the system-wide dma_ops pointer is used as before.

If it's useful for KVM people, I plan to implement a mechanism to register
a hook called when a new pci (or dma capable) device is created (it works
with hot plugging).  It enables IOMMUs to set up an appropriate
dma_mapping_ops per device.

The major obstacle is that dma_mapping_error doesn't take a pointer to the
device unlike other DMA operations.  So x86 can't have dma_mapping_ops per
device.  Note all the POWER IOMMUs use the same dma_mapping_error function
so this is not a problem for POWER but x86 IOMMUs use different
dma_mapping_error functions.

The first patch adds the device argument to dma_mapping_error.  The patch
is trivial but large since it touches lots of drivers and dma-mapping.h in
all the architecture.

This patch:

dma_mapping_error() doesn't take a pointer to the device unlike other DMA
operations.  So we can't have dma_mapping_ops per device.

Note that POWER already has dma_mapping_ops per device but all the POWER
IOMMUs use the same dma_mapping_error function.  x86 IOMMUs use device
argument.

aa24886e37 dma_free_coherent() needs irqs enabled (sigh)
On at least ARM (and I'm told MIPS too) dma_free_coherent() has a newish
call context requirement: unlike its dma_alloc_coherent() sibling, it may
not be called with IRQs disabled.  (This was new behavior on ARM as of late
2005, caused by ARM SMP updates.) This little surprise can be annoyingly
driver-visible.

Since it looks like that restriction won't be removed, this patch changes
the definition of the API to include that requirement.  Also, to help catch
nonportable drivers, it updates the x86 and swiotlb versions to include the
relevant warnings.  (I already observed that it trips on the
bus_reset_tasklet of the new firewire_ohci driver.)

e18b890bb0 [PATCH] slab: remove kmem_cache_t
Replace all uses of kmem_cache_t with struct kmem_cache.

The patch was generated using the following script:

	#!/bin/sh
	#
	# Replace one string by another in all the kernel sources.
	#

	set -e

	for file in `find * -name "*.c" -o -name "*.h"|xargs grep -l $1`; do
		quilt add $file
		sed -e "1,\$s/$1/$2/g" $file >/tmp/$$
		mv /tmp/$$ $file
		quilt refresh
	done

The script was run like this

	sh replace kmem_cache_t "struct kmem_cache"

This patch fixes typos in various Documentation txts. The patch addresses some
+words starting with the letters 'U-Z'.

Looks like I made it through the alphabet...just in time to start over again
+too!  Maybe I can fit more profound fixes into the next round...?  Time will
+tell. :)

21440d3133 [PATCH] dma doc updates
This updates the DMA API documentation to address a few issues:

 - The dma_map_sg() call results are used like pci_map_sg() results:
   using sg_dma_address() and sg_dma_len().  That's not wholly obvious
   to folk reading _only_ the "new" DMA-API.txt writeup.

 - Buffers allocated by dma_alloc_coherent() may not be completely
   free of coherency concerns ... some CPUs also have write buffers
   that may need to be flushed.

 - Cacheline coherence issues are now mentioned as being among issues
   which affect dma buffers, and complicate/prevent using of static and
   (especially) stack based buffers with the DMA calls.

I don't think many drivers currently need to worry about flushing write
buffers, but I did hit it with one SOC using external SDRAM for DMA
descriptors:  without explicit writebuffer flushing, the on-chip DMA
controller accessed descriptors before the CPU completed the writes.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.

Let it rip!
