  To: hverkuil; +Cc: linux-input, linux-media, Florian Echtler

This patch add support for the raw video stream from the Samsung SUR40
touchscreen device. Existing input device support is not affected by this
patch and can be used concurrently. videobuf2-dma-contig is used for buffer
management. All tests from current v4l2-compliance -s run pass (see 
http://floe.butterbrot.org/external/results.txt for details).

Note: I'm intentionally using dma-contig instead of vmalloc, as the USB
core apparently _will_ try to use DMA for larger bulk transfers.

Hi Florian,

Sorry for the delay.

Several comments below...

As far as I can tell from looking through the usb core code it supports
scatter-gather DMA, so you should at least use dma-sg rather than dma-contig.
Physically contiguous memory should always be avoided.

I'm also missing a patch for the Kconfig that adds a dependency on MEDIA_USB_SUPPORT
and that selects VIDEOBUF2_DMA_SG.

Is this a hardwired device or hotpluggable? If it is hardwired, then this code is
OK, but if it is hotpluggable, then this isn't good enough.

Swap these two line: unregister the video device first, then the v4l2_device.

Drop this. You only set this if there are specific limitations to the DMA.
This line will limit the buffer to the bottom 16 MB only, and that's not
what you want.

OK, will this work transparently (i.e. just switch from *-contig-* to
*-sg-*)? If not, can you suggest an example driver to use as template?

Good point, will add that.

It's hardwired. Out of curiosity, what would I have to change for a
hotpluggable one?

In-cell is referring to the concept of integrating sensor pixels
directly with LCD pixels, I think it's what Samsung calls it.

Yes, that should pretty much be seamless. BTW, the more I think about it,
the more I am convinced that DMA will also be used by the USB core when
you use videobuf2-vmalloc.

I've CC-ed Laurent, I think he knows a lot more about this than I do.

Laurent, when does the USB core use DMA? What do you need to do on the
driver side to have USB use DMA when doing bulk transfers?

In that case you can't clean everything up since some application might
still have a filehandle open. You have to wait until the very last filehandle
is closed.

How USB HCD drivers map buffers for DMA is HCD-specific, but all drivers 
exepct ehci-tegra, max3421-hcd and musb use the default implementation 
usb_hcd_map_urb_for_dma() (in drivers/usb/core/hcd.c).

Unless the buffer has already been mapped by the USB driver (in which case the 
driver will have set the URB_NO_TRANSFER_DMA_MAP flag in urb->transfer_flags 
and initialized the urb->transfer_dma field), the function will use 
dma_map_sg(), dma_map_page() or dma_map_single() depending on the buffer type 
(controlled through urb->sg and urb->num_sgs). DMA will thus always be used 
*expect* if the platform uses bounce buffers when the buffer can't be mapped 
directly for DMA.

So we can safely use videobuf2-vmalloc, right?

That depends on the platform and whether it can DMA to vmalloc'ed memory :-) 
To be totally safe I think vb2-dma-sg would be better, but I'm not sure it's 
worth the trouble. uvcvideo uses vb2-vmalloc as it performs a memcpy anyway.

The SUR40 sends raw video data without any headers over the bulk
endpoint in blocks of 16k, so I'm assuming that in this specific case,
vb2-dma-sg would be the most efficient choice?

On that note, I've seen that vb2_dma_sg_{init|cleanup}_ctx will appear
only in 3.19. If I want to maintain a backwards-compatible version for
older kernels, what do I use in that case?

Best, Florian

Easiest would actually be to copy all the videobuf2 sources and headers
to that older kernel.

Obviously, for upstreaming you should always use the latest APIs and
never use backwards-compatible constructs.

I'm still having a couple of issues sorting out the correct way to
provide DMA access for my driver. I've integrated most of your
suggestions, but I still can't switch from dma-contig to dma-sg.

As far as I understood it, there is no further initialization required
besides using vb2_dma_sg_memops, vb2_dma_sg_init_ctx and
vb2_dma_sg_cleanup_ctx instead of the respective -contig- calls, correct?

However, as soon as I swap the relevant function calls, the video image
stays black and in dmesg, I get the following warning:

Sorry to bring this up again, but would it be acceptable to simply use
dma-contig after all? Since the GFP_DMA flag is gone, this shouldn't be
too big of an issue IMHO, and I was kind of hoping the patch could still
be part of 3.20.

Best, Florian

The window for 3.20 is closed, I'm afraid.

I remain very skeptical about the use of dma-contig (or dma-sg for that
matter). Have you tried using vmalloc and check if the USB core isn't
automatically using DMA transfers for that?

Basically I would like to see proof that vmalloc is not an option before
allowing dma-contig (or dma-sg if you can figure out why that isn't
working).

You can also make a version with vmalloc and I'll merge that, and then
you can look more into the DMA issues. That way the driver is merged,
even if it is perhaps not yet optimal, and you can address that part later.

Regards,

	Hans

OK, that sounds sensible, I will try that route. When using
videobuf2-vmalloc, what do I pass back for alloc_ctxs in queue_setup?

vmalloc doesn't need those, so you can just drop any alloc_ctx related code.

That's what I assumed, however, I'm running into the same problem as
with dma-sg when I switch to vmalloc...?

I've sent a "proper" patch submission again, which has all the other
issues from the previous submission fixed. I'm hoping you can maybe have
a closer look and see if I'm doing anything subtly wrong which causes
both vmalloc and dma-sg to fail while dma-contig works.

Best, Florian

I don't expect vmalloc to work, as you can't DMA to vmalloc memory directly 
without any IOMMU in the general case (the allocated memory being physically 
fragmented).

dma-sg should work though, but you won't be able to use usb_bulk_msg(). You 
need to create the URBs manually, set their sg and num_sgs fields and submit 
them.

So it works for other usb media drivers because they allocate memory
using kmalloc (and presumably the usb core can DMA to that), and then memcpy
it to the vmalloc-ed buffers?

Anyway Florian, based on Laurent's explanation I think trying to make
dma-sg work seems to be the best solution. And I've learned something
new :-)

Can I also use usb_sg_init/_wait for this? I can't find any other driver
which uses USB in conjunction with dma-sg, can you suggest one I could
use as an example?

Thanks for the clarification, please ignore the v2 patch submission for
now :-)

Best, Florian

Correct. In the uvcvideo case that's unavoidable as headers need to be removed 
from the packets.

usb_sg_init() is an interesting abstraction that transparently splits SG lists 
into several URBs if the USB host controller can't support SG lists directly. 
Unfortunately the API is blocking. It shouldn't be too difficult to add an 
asynchronous option with a complete callback.
