[PATCH 2/2] gpu: host1x: Use SMMU on Tegra124 and Tegra210

[Thierry Reding <thierry.reding@gmail.com>]

From: Thierry Reding <treding@nvidia.com>

Tegra124 and Tegra210 support addressing more than 32 bits of physical
memory. However, since their host1x does not support the wide GATHER
opcode, they should use the SMMU if at all possible to ensure that all
the system memory can be used for command buffers, irrespective of
whether or not the host1x firewall is enabled.

+	 *
+	 * Tegra124 and later can address up to 34 bits of physical memory and

+	 * SoCs before Tegra186 (i.e. Tegra124 and Tegra210), the host1x can
+	 * only address up to 32 bits of memory in GATHER opcodes, which means
+	 * that command buffers need to either be in the first 2 GiB of system
+	 * memory (which could quickly lead to memory exhaustion), or command
+	 * buffers need to be treated differently from other buffers (which is
+	 * not possible with the current ABI).
+	 *
+	 * A third option is to use the IOMMU in these cases to make sure all
+	 * buffers will be mapped into a 32-bit IOVA space that host1x can
+	 * address. This allows all of the system memory to be used and works
+	 * within the limitations of the host1x on these SoCs.
+	 *
+	 * In summary, default to enable IOMMU on Tegra124 and later. For any
+	 * of the earlier SoCs, only use the IOMMU for additional safety when
+	 * the host1x firewall is disabled.
