Subject: generic DMA bypass flag v3
Date: Tue, 14 Apr 2020 14:25:02 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20200414122506.438134-1-hch@lst.de> (raw)

Hi all,

I've recently beeing chatting with Lu about using dma-iommu and
per-device DMA ops in the intel IOMMU driver, and one missing feature
in dma-iommu is a bypass mode where the direct mapping is used even
when an iommu is attached to improve performance.  The powerpc
code already has a similar mode, so I'd like to move it to the core
DMA mapping code.  As part of that I noticed that the current
powerpc code has a little bug in that it used the wrong check in the
dma_sync_* routines to see if the direct mapping code is used.

These two patches just add the generic code and move powerpc over,
the intel IOMMU bits will require a separate discussion.

The x86 AMD Gart code also has a bypass mode, but it is a lot
strange, so I'm not going to touch it for now.

Changes since v2:
 - move the dma mapping helpers out of line
 - check for possible direct mappings using the dma mask

Changes since v1:
 - rebased to the current dma-mapping-for-next tree
