Subject: [PATCH 2/2] dma-mapping: set default segment_boundary_mask to ULONG_MAX
Date: Tue,  1 Sep 2020 15:16:46 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20200901221646.26491-3-nicoleotsuka@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20200901221646.26491-1-nicoleotsuka@gmail.com>

The default segment_boundary_mask was set to DMA_BIT_MAKS(32)
a decade ago by referencing SCSI/block subsystem, as a 32-bit
mask was good enough for most of the devices.

Now more and more drivers set dma_masks above DMA_BIT_MAKS(32)
while only a handful of them call dma_set_seg_boundary(). This
means that most drivers have a 4GB segmention boundary because
DMA API returns a 32-bit default value, though they might not
really have such a limit.

The default segment_boundary_mask should mean "no limit" since
the device doesn't explicitly set the mask. But a 32-bit mask
certainly limits those devices capable of 32+ bits addressing.

So this patch sets default segment_boundary_mask to ULONG_MAX.
