I will let the dma-buf experts correct me on that. Limiting userspace clients to not be able to access buffers until after they are dma-mapped seems unfortuntate to me, dma-mapping usually means a change of ownership of the memory from the CPU to the device. So generally while a buffer is dma mapped you have the device access it (though of course it is supported for CPU to access to the buffer while dma mapped) and then once the buffer is dma-unmapped the CPU can access it. This is how the DMA APIs are frequently used, and the changes above make ION align more with the way the DMA APIs are used. Basically when the buffer is not dma-mapped the CPU doesn't need to do any CMOs to access the buffer (and ION ensures not CMOs are applied) but if the CPU does want to access the buffer while it is dma mapped then ION ensures that the appropriate CMOs are applied. It seems like a legitimate uses case to me to allow clients to access the buffer before (and after) dma-mapping, example post processing of buffers. > Either of the above two solutions would need to target the DMA-BUF > framework, > > Sumit, > > Any comment? > > Thanks, > Andrew > > > - dma_sync_sg_for_cpu(a->dev, a->table->sgl, a->table->nents, > > - direction); > > + if (a->dma_mapped) > > + dma_sync_sg_for_cpu(a->dev, a->table->sgl, > > + a->table->nents, direction); > > } > > > > unlock: > > @@ -369,8 +384,9 @@ static int ion_dma_buf_end_cpu_access(struct dma_buf *dmabuf, > > > > mutex_lock(&buffer->lock); > > list_for_each_entry(a, &buffer->attachments, list) { > > - dma_sync_sg_for_device(a->dev, a->table->sgl, a->table->nents, > > - direction); > > + if (a->dma_mapped) > > + dma_sync_sg_for_device(a->dev, a->table->sgl, > > + a->table->nents, direction); > > } > > mutex_unlock(&buffer->lock); > > > > > Qualcomm Innovation Center, Inc. is a member of Code Aurora Forum, a Linux Foundation Collaborative Project

Are you sure this is the best packing for such a structure? Why is dbuf_fd __s32? dir can be __u8, right? I don't know that dma layer very well, it would be good to get some review from others to see if this really is even a viable thing to do. The fd handling seems a bit "odd" here, but maybe I just do not understand it. thanks, greg k-h
