2.6.26-rc1 regression: ISA DMA broken (bisected)

2.6.26-rc1 regression: ISA DMA broken (bisected)

[Rene Herman]

Good day.

commit 8779f2fc3b84ebb6c5181fb13d702e9944c16069

"x86: don't try to allocate from DMA zone at first"

breaks all of ISA DMA. Or all of ALSA ISA DMA at least. All
ISA soundcards are silent following that commit -- no error
messages, everything appears fine, just silence.

It won't just revert due to 32/64 merge.

Rene.

Thanks for catching it.  Yeah, the patch looks buggy.  We had an
implicit assumption that dev = NULL for ISA devices that require 24bit
DMA.

How about the patch below?  It's against the latest Linus git tree.


thanks,

[PATCH] x86: Fix dma_alloc_coherent() for ISA devices

The recent work on x86 dma_alloc_coherent() breaks the ISA DMA buffer
allocation, which is represented by "dev = NULL" and requires 24bit
DMA implicitly.

That patch is buggy. We had an implicit assumption that
dev = NULL for ISA devices that require 24bit DMA.

The recent work on x86 dma_alloc_coherent() breaks the ISA DMA buffer
allocation, which is represented by "dev = NULL" and requires 24bit
DMA implicitly.

Woke up and saw it, got worried, but there is already a fix. ;-)

Oh... it was rather significantly in the AM when I posted so I forgot to
mention in the haste to get this out of the way but it was Pete Clements
who reported the regression:

http://www.nabble.com/Lost-Sound-from-2.6.24-to-2.6.25----CS4236-ISA-tc17062547.html

He also tested it, so as long as we're name-mention-flattering around...

And this a good excuse to ask how you edit changelog after the fact. Just
reset/reapply and stuff or is there a "better" way? I fairly frequently
find myself wanting to do just that but it's a bit of a mess when there's
already commits on top.

generally we prefer append-only repositories for public trees.

But as long as you've not pushed it out to others yet, i.e. it's a 
purely local development tree, you can use two methods:

If it's just one commit in some devel branch that you want to put into a 
'fixes' branch one you can use git-cherry-pick --edit to shuffle it 
over.

For more complex scenarios you can use git-rebase --interactive to 
rebase your commits and to edit them. Replace the command "pick" with 
"edit" to change/fix the commit message. "squash" can be used to fold 
fixes.

Many thanks. Had in fact failed to notice --edit and will definitely 
check out the interactive rebase. Sounds very useful.

Naive question #1:  Why don't we have a struct device for these
ISA devices?  PNP builds a struct device with DMA_24BIT_MASK
for ISAPNP devices.

Naive question #2:  Do other architectures need similar fixes in
dma_alloc_coherent()?

Because nobody has done the needed work to get all the old ISA drivers
converted. I guess isa_device would actually be a platform_device
wrapper ?

No, isa_device is its own thing, on its own isa_bus (*). It has a struct 
device * readily available though...

Thanks for the nice changelog.

isa_register_driver() currently doesn't set a DMA mask.  Should it?

I only see about 35 dma_alloc_coherent() calls that pass NULL.  I
guess even those would be a fair amount of work to change, and I
suppose there would be more that I missed.

There are 5 pci_alloc_consistent() with NULL, too.

If it's going to be useful, definitely. The attached does not just set

   dev->dma_mask = &dev->coherent_dma_mask

as in the fallback_dev when dma_alloc_coherent() is passed a NULL device 
only due to the mask juggling in snd_dma_hack_alloc_coherent() (which 
wouldn't break, but...) but introduces its own copy in struct isa_dev 
same as struct pnp_dev. As far as I'm aware, there's no actual reason

At least the ALSA one isn't passing a literal NULL it seems. But yes, 
current NULL-hack reinstatement (it's been merged by Linus already) is 
definitely the correct fix for now.

Would like a comment on the snd_dma_hack_alloc_coherent thing first (no 
signoff...) but other than that I'll submit this in preparation for it 
being useful, I guess?

The snd_dma_hack_alloc_coherent() is gone in the latest ALSA tree.
It wasn't merged to 2.6.26, though.

Yes.  We need to fix the caller of snd_pcm_lib_preallocate_pages*()
under sound/isa.  Currently it's called with snd_dma_isa_data(), which
is expanded to NULL.  Replace it with a proper device pointer should
suffice.

Yes, I like this patch.

Ah, good, thanks, I'll forward port to current ALSA.

Like this? With this (on top of the previous patch setting the dma_mask 
ofcourse) legacy ISA actually appears to be fine but it's then ISAPnP 
which goes bonkers again. Sigh. Getting an allocation failure. Don't 
understand why yet since pnp_alloc_dev() definitely sets the mask 
already. Will stare...

Rene.

Check the master branch of the following tree for the latest ALSA:

I prefer passing the device pointer directly.

Note that snd_dma_isa_data() is just for making the code compatible
more easily with older kernels in alsa-driver tree.  Otherwise we'd
need a patch file for each source file.  But, the patch-file approach
is cleaner (for the upstream) anyway at this stage.

You're in a maze of struct device *s, all alike... I was passing the 
pnp_card->dev instead of the initialized pnp_dev->dev.

And, not doing so brings out a difference between ISAPnP and legacy ISA 
again insofar that legacy ISA does not consist of cards with multiple 
devices. We just have the single struct device * for the ISA device.

This therefore would be the easiest solution (and works fine) but seems 
a bit of a hack. Bjorn, do you have an opinion? If I abstract things out 
a bit more I might be able to do this nicer. One might on the other hand 
argue that the dma_mask is going to be constant for all card devices so 
might as well just use the card dev.

sound/{isa,oss} together with drivers/isdn/hisax/ are the only pnp_card 
users.

I agree, it seems a bit of a hack to use a DMA mask from the card
instead of from the device, since the driver should be programming
the device to do the DMA.

But I know very little about pnp_card in general, so don't attach too
much weight to my opinion.

Okay, I'll sit on this for a bit. Right now we're using a global device even 
but this is exactly about cleaning that up so couldn't convince myself. Will 
see what happens when I try to make it nice...

It gets uglier. ALSA ISA drivers (for cards that exist both as legacy 
and as ISAPnP at least) keep a merged legacy/isapnp model; PnP is used 
mostly for initializing global variables that the same old legacy probe 
routines then reference. This means that beyond that global resource 
init step the specific struct device is no longer available. Without 
restructuring too many things really only fixable through other hacks 
again such as a global dma_dev[] array or some such.

 From the viewpoint of PnP itself setting the dma_mask for a pnp_card (a 
pnp_dev collection) makes isolated sense so if no objections, I'll 
submit the attached after all. From the ALSA side we'd then pass the 
card dev (which we'd also do for isa_dev) and keep in mind that we might 
want to get more specific if over time structure permits it.

struct snd_pcm already has its own struct device * which would be the 
right one here but it's setting that which gets ugly...

Rene.

... this note by the way I believe pnp_dev might as well get rid of its 
dma_mask as well. As far I've googled up the history of that the reason 
why dev->dma_mask is a pointer is only that it's been moved into struct 
device from struct pci_dev where the latter location was kept as the 
main one so as to not upset then current code.

Everyone else seems to have then faithfully cloned pci_dev and stuck it 
in their private structs as well but for no good reason it would appear.

And in the case of the PnP ISA masks, we're talking about constant 
masks, dictated by the shared global DMA controller and not the card 
itself (there are a few ISA cards that do their own busmastering but 
they're special) so the mask might as well just point to the coherent mask.

Unless I'm missing something ofcourse...

Rene.

Looks good to me.  It does sound like a lot of work and possibly
more risk than it's worth to fix up some of this stuff.

I do still wonder whether any non-x86 architectures need similar
fixes in dma_alloc_coherent(), i.e., check for dev==NULL and fall
back to a 24-bit DMA mask.

Fairly invasive at least. The good thing though is that with the recent 
pnp_manual_config_dev() removal the PnP drivers have no actual need/use 
for this global variable model anymore and now I have a great excuse for 
rewriting them. That can happen one at a time though...

Hrmmpf. Good question. In sound/isa, we've had a but of alpha spottyness 
over time but nothing which would seem to be related.

Argh.  Could we please be better with the changelogs?

This one tells us briefly what the patch does, but it deosn't tell us
why it does it.  It doesn't tell us whether it fixes some bug (and if
so what that bug is) and it gives me no means of determining whether
the patch is needed in 2.6.26 or in 2.6.25.x.

If you already knew what it was about these were nicely concise and to

Subject: [PATCH] PNP: set the pnp_card dma_mask for use by ISAPnP cards.

dma_alloc_coherent() on x86 currently takes a passed in NULL device
pointer to mean that it should allocate an ISA compatible (24-bit)
buffer which is a bit of a hack.

The ALSA ISA drivers are the main consumers of this but have a struct
device in fact readily available.

For the PnP drivers, the specific pnp_dev->dev device pointer is not
always available at the right time so for now we want to pass the
pnp_card->dev instead which is always available. Set its dma_mask in
preparation for doing so.

This does not fix a current bug -- 2.6.26-rc1 stumbled over the NULL
hack in dma_alloc_coherent() but this has already been fixed in commit
4a367f3a9dbf2e7ffcee4702203479809236ee6e by Takashi Iwai.
