Subject: [PATCH 1/2] swiotlb: Make DIRECT_MAPPING_ERROR viable
Date: Tue, 20 Nov 2018 14:09:52 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <e90da5fbab881c502ac3412fb05c44b26c99f73a.1542722463.git.robin.murphy@arm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <cover.1542722463.git.robin.murphy@arm.com>

With the overflow buffer removed, we no longer have a unique address
which is guaranteed not to be a valid DMA target to use as an error
token. The DIRECT_MAPPING_ERROR value of 0 tries to at least represent
an unlikely DMA target, but unfortunately there are already SWIOTLB
users with DMA-able memory at physical address 0 which now gets falsely
treated as a mapping failure and leads to all manner of misbehaviour.

The best we can do to mitigate that is flip DIRECT_MAPPING_ERROR to the
commonly-used all-bits-set value, since the last single byte of memory
is by far the least-likely-valid DMA target.

Fixes: dff8d6c1ed58 ("swiotlb: remove the overflow buffer")]
