[PATCH 0/3] ASoC: Move pcm writecombine dma buffer allocation to core

[PATCH 0/3] ASoC: Move pcm writecombine dma buffer allocation to core

[Laxman Dewangan]

Some of the ARM based soc allocate the writecombine dma buffer for
pcm substreams. They have the same codes for managing this buffer.
Moving this to the core/pcm files so that they can use that directly.

Remove the code from Tegra PCM and use these new library function.

This is enabled only for ARM specific and can be extended to other
architecture if they support the writecombine dma buffer.

This patch is based on detail discussion on patch:
[PATCH] ASoC: snd_dmaengine: add common api for pcm_mmap
And suggestion from Lars and Takashi.


Laxman Dewangan (3):
  ALSA: pcm: add apis for writecombine dma buffer allocation
  ASoC: add apis for creating/free pcm dma buffer
  ASoC: tegra: use core/pcm library for pcm buffer allocation

Looking through your patch, I think an easier integration is just to
add writecombine option to memalloc.c which calls
dma_alloc_writecombine() instead of dma_alloc_coherent().

The addition for mmap is still an open question.  Again, an easier
option so far looks like just add the call of dma_alloc_writecombine()
in snd_pcm_lib_default_mmap().  Alternatively, we can create an
individual mmap pcm_ops as we discussed.

Below is a totally untested patch, but you can imagine what I meant.

After this change, replace with snd_pcm_lib_malloc_pages with
SNDRV_DMA_TYPE_DEV_WC, and that's all you need in the driver side.

We can not use the snd_pcm_lib_malloc_pages() in the pcm_new callback 
because at this time the substream->runtime is not initialized and it 
leads to the kernel crash.

I used the apis as

int snd_soc_pcm_new_wc_dma_buffer(struct snd_soc_pcm_runtime *rtd,
                 size_t max_bytes)
{
      :::::::::::::
         substream = pcm->streams[SNDRV_PCM_STREAM_PLAYBACK].substream;
         if (substream) {
                 substream->dma_buffer.dev.type = SNDRV_DMA_TYPE_DEV_WC;
                 ret = snd_pcm_lib_malloc_pages(substream, max_bytes);
                 if (ret)
                         goto err;
         }
::::::::
}


int snd_pcm_lib_malloc_pages(struct snd_pcm_substream *substream, size_t 
size)
{
         struct snd_pcm_runtime *runtime;
         struct snd_dma_buffer *dmab = NULL;

         if (PCM_RUNTIME_CHECK(substream))
                 return -EINVAL;

         if (snd_BUG_ON(substream->dma_buffer.dev.type ==
                        SNDRV_DMA_TYPE_UNKNOWN))
                 return -EINVAL;

         runtime = substream->runtime;

         if (runtime->dma_buffer_p) {
---------------Kernel crash at this point ----------

So I used the snd_dma_alloc_pages() from the driver to allocate WC memory.

This does not get compiled in ARM because dma_alloc_coherant is macro 
defined as

#define dma_alloc_coherent(d, s, h, f) dma_alloc_attrs(d, s, h, f, NULL)

static inline void *dma_alloc_attrs(struct device *dev, size_t size,
                                        dma_addr_t *dma_handle, gfp_t flag,
                                        struct dma_attrs *attrs)


I fixed this by
static void *_dma_alloc_coherent(struct device *dev, size_t size,
                 dma_addr_t *dma_handle, gfp_t flag)
{
         return dma_alloc_coherent(dev, size, dma_handle, flag);
}

/* allocate the coherent DMA pages */
static void *snd_malloc_dev_pages(struct device *dev, size_t size, 
dma_addr_t *dma)
{
         return _snd_malloc_dev_pages(dev, size, dma, _dma_alloc_coherent);
}

Hi Takashi,
Thanks for sample code. It helps lot.

We can not use the snd_pcm_lib_malloc_pages() in the pcm_new callback 
because at this time the substream->runtime is not initialized and it 
leads to the kernel crash.

I used the apis as

int snd_soc_pcm_new_wc_dma_buffer(struct snd_soc_pcm_runtime *rtd,
                 size_t max_bytes)
{
      :::::::::::::
         substream = pcm->streams[SNDRV_PCM_STREAM_PLAYBACK].substream;
         if (substream) {
                 substream->dma_buffer.dev.type = SNDRV_DMA_TYPE_DEV_WC;
                 ret = snd_pcm_lib_malloc_pages(substream, max_bytes);
                 if (ret)
                         goto err;
         }
::::::::
}


int snd_pcm_lib_malloc_pages(struct snd_pcm_substream *substream, size_t 
size)
{
         struct snd_pcm_runtime *runtime;
         struct snd_dma_buffer *dmab = NULL;

         if (PCM_RUNTIME_CHECK(substream))
                 return -EINVAL;

         if (snd_BUG_ON(substream->dma_buffer.dev.type ==
                        SNDRV_DMA_TYPE_UNKNOWN))
                 return -EINVAL;

         runtime = substream->runtime;

         if (runtime->dma_buffer_p) {
---------------Kernel crash at this point ----------

So I used the snd_dma_alloc_pages() from the driver to allocate WC memory.

This does not get compiled in ARM because dma_alloc_coherant is macro 
defined as

#define dma_alloc_coherent(d, s, h, f) dma_alloc_attrs(d, s, h, f, NULL)

static inline void *dma_alloc_attrs(struct device *dev, size_t size,
                                        dma_addr_t *dma_handle, gfp_t flag,
                                        struct dma_attrs *attrs)


I fixed this by
static void *_dma_alloc_coherent(struct device *dev, size_t size,
                 dma_addr_t *dma_handle, gfp_t flag)
{
         return dma_alloc_coherent(dev, size, dma_handle, flag);
}

/* allocate the coherent DMA pages */
static void *snd_malloc_dev_pages(struct device *dev, size_t size, 
dma_addr_t *dma)
{
         return _snd_malloc_dev_pages(dev, size, dma, _dma_alloc_coherent);
}

snd_pcm_lib_malloc_pages() should be called only from hw_params.
Prior to that, you need to set up the dam_buffer type by calling
snd_pcm_lib_preallocate_pages() or
snd_pcm_lib_preallocate_pages_for_all() at the time to create a PCM
instance.  The size can be 0 if not necessary to allocate there but
later on demand.

It worked well. Cool implementation.

I will send the patch of memalloc and for Tegra actually using this feature.

I think all dma_alloc_* functions use dma_alloc_attrs internally these days.
I think it might be a better idea just to use dma_alloc_attrs in
__snd_malloc_dev_pages and just pass a dma_attrs struct instead of a function.

Something like:

static void *__snd_malloc_dev_pages(struct device *dev, size_t size,
			    dma_addr_t *dma, struct dma_attrs *attrs)
{
....
	res = dma_alloc_attrs(dev, PAGE_SIZE << pg, dma, gfp_flags, attrs);
....
}


static void *snd_malloc_dev_pages(struct device *dev, size_t size,
	dma_addr_t *dma)
{
	return __snd_malloc_dev_pages(dev, size, dma, NULL);
}

static void *snd_malloc_dev_wc_pages(struct device *dev, size_t size,
	dma_addr_t *dma)
{
	DEFINE_DMA_ATTRS(attrs);
	dma_set_attr(DMA_ATTR_WRITE_COMBINE, &attrs);

	return __snd_malloc_dev_pages(dev, size, dma, &attrs);
}

Same applies for freeing the memory again.

Yes, that'd be cleaner.
But I prefer the code still workable on 3.5-base kernel, which makes
easier to test and merge for 3.6, at first. 

So, let's clean up these indirect calls once after all things are
settled down at 3.6-rc1.  It can be applied even before 3.6-rc2.

Actually that part is already in 3.5. But I've just had a closer look and it
looks as if even for 3.6 not all archs have been converted to
dma_alloc_attrs yet :/
