Something else? I think actually exposing the struct fence objects as a fd, using android syncpts (or at least something compatible to it) is the way to go. Problem is that it's super-hard to get the android guys out of hiding for this :( Adding a bunch of people in the hopes that something sticks. -Daniel -- Daniel Vetter Software Engineer, Intel Corporation +41 (0) 79 365 57 48 - http://blog.ffwll.ch

[PATCH 00/29] Exynos SYSMMU (IOMMU) integration with DT and DMA-mapping subsystem

by Marek Szyprowski

Hello Everyone, A lot of things has happened in the area of improving Exynos IOMMU driver and discussion about generic IOMMU bindings, which finally motivated me to get back to IOMMU related tasks. Just to remind, here are those 2 important threads: 1. [PATCH v13 00/19] iommu/exynos: Fixes and Enhancements of System MMU driver with DT: https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/5/12/34 2. [PATCH v4] devicetree: Add generic IOMMU device tree bindings: https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/7/4/349 As a follow up of those discussions I've decided to finish our internal code, which adapts Exynos SYSMMU driver to meet generic IOMMU bindings requirements and implement all needed glue code to finally demonstare seemless integration IOMMU controller with DMA-mapping subsystem for the drivers available on Exynos SoCs. 1. Introduction - a few words for those who are not fully aware of the Exynos SoC hardware Exynos SoC consists of various devices integrated directly into SoCs. Most of them are multimedia devices, which usually process large buffers. Some of them (like i.e. MFC - a multimedia codec or FIMD - a multi-window framebuffer device & lcd panel controller) are equipped with more than one memory interface for higher processing performance. There are also really complex subsystems (like ISP, the camera sensor interface & processor), which consist of many sub-blocks, each having its own memory interface/channel/bus (different names are used for the same thing). Each such memory controller might be equipped with SYSMMU device, which acts as IOMMU controller for the parent device (called master device, a device which that memory interface belongs to). Each SYSMMU controller has its own register set and clock, belongs to the same power domain as master device. There is also some non-direct relation from master's device gate clock - SYSMMU registers can be accessed only when master's gate clock is enabled. Basically we have following dependencies between hardware and drivers: - each multimedia device might have 1 or more SYSMMU controller - each SYSMMU controller belongs only to 1 master device - all SYSMMU controllers are independent of each other, there is no global hardware ID that must be assigned to enable given SYSMMU controller - multimedia devices are modeled usually by a separate node in device tree with it's own compatible string and separate driver for them - sub-blocks of complex devices right now are not modeled by a separate device tree nodes, but this might be changed in the future - some multimedia devices have limited address space per each memory controller/channel (i.e. codec might access buffers only in a 256MiB window for each of it's memory channels) - some drivers for independent device are used together to provide a more complex subsystem, i.e. FIMD, HDMI-mixer and others form together Exynos DRM subsystem; it is highly welcome to let them to operate in the same, shared DMA address space to simplify buffer sharing 2. Introduction part 2 - a few word of summary of the discussions about generic IOMMU DT bindings There have been a lot of discussions on the method of modeling IOMMU controllers in device tree. The approach which has been selected as the generic IOMMU binding candidate has been described in the '[PATCH v4] devicetree: Add generic IOMMU device tree bindings' thread. Those bindings describe how to link an IOMMU controller with its master device. Basically an 'iommus' property placed in the master's device node has been introduced. This property contains phandle to IOMMU controller node. Optional properties of the particular binding can also be specified after the phandle, assuming that IOMMU controller node contains '#iommu-cells' property, which defines number of cells used for those parameters. Those parameters are then interpreted by particular IOMMU controller driver. Those parameters might be some hw channel id required for correct hardware setup, base address and size pair for limited IO address space window or others hardware dependant properties. 3. IOMMU integration to DMA-mapping subsystem By default we assume that each master device, which has been equipped with IOMMU controller gets its own DMA (IO) address space. This is created automatically and transparently without any changes in the device driver code. All DMA-mapping functions are replaced with the IOMMU aware versions. This has to be done somewhere by the architecture or SoC startup code, so when master's driver probe() function is called, everything is in place. However some device drivers might need (for various reasons) to manually manage DMA (IO) address space. For this case a driver need to notify kernel about that and do the management of DMA address space on its own. This has been achieved by introducing DRIVER_HAS_OWN_IOMMU_MANAGER flag, which can be set in struct device_driver. This way the startup code can easily determine if creating the default per-device separate DMA address space is required for a given driver or not without any unneeded alloc/free call sequences. 4. Linux DMA-mapping subsystem and more than one DMA address space DMA-mapping subsystem assumes that there is only one DMA (IO) address space associated with the given struct device entity. Usually struct device is mapped in one-to-one relation to a node describing given device in device tree. To let driver to access other DMA (IO) address spaces a sub-device has been introduced. This approach has been already used by s5p-mfc driver (drivers/media/platform/s5p-mfc/s5p_mfc.c). The only question is how and when sub-devices are created. In the proposed approach, such additional address spaces are named with the names of the respective IOMMU controllers (iommu-names property in master's DT node). To let driver to access an address space, a sub-device named 'parent_device_name:address_space_name' need to be created and added as a child to master's struct device. A good example is codec device, which on Exynos4412 SoC is instantiated as '13400000.codec' device. It has 2 memory interfaces ('left' and 'right'), so the sub-devices called '13400000.codec:left' and '13400000.codec:right' must be created by a driver and added as children of '13400000.codec' device. Once then the driver is allowed to allocate 2 separate dma-mapping address spaces by calling arm_iommu_create_mapping() and arm_iommu_detach_device() functions or newly introduced helper arm_iommu_create_default_mapping(). For more details, please refer to the last patch in this series. Exactly the same approach is planned to be done for memory regions and DMA-mapping implemented on top of CMA or DMA-coherent memory allocators. When driver doesn't specify that it wants to manage its DMA (IO) address spaces, a default DMA (IO) address space will be created and all SYSMMU controllers will be bound to it, so this space will be shared across master's device IO channels / memory interfaces. This way IOMMU support might be added only to drivers which really benefit from having separate IO address space per memory interface without a need to alter the other drivers. Why driver might need to manage the IO address space on its own? Once again the codec device on Exynos4 series is a good example. Memory interfaces found in the mentioned codec device are limited and can address only 256MiB window. If we bind both interfaces to common address space, driver is able only to access memory buffers, which fits into 256MiB window. If we use separate spaces for each memory interface, codec device will be able to access buffers of total 2*256MiB=512MiB, which is a significant advantage over the default case of shared address space. 5. Power management (runtime) Runtime power management is the most tricky part of the proposed solution. I assumed that it is a sane requirement that from the master's device driver the operation without IOMMU and with IOMMU (with default, per-device mapping) should be exactly the same. The runtime power management, which is now mainly limited to enabling and disabling hardware power domains is done by the master's device driver. However from the hardware perspective, there is also a need to save SYSMMU context before switch pm domain off and restore it after switching pm domain on. To achieve this way of SYSMMU operation, a notifiers for power domains have been introduces. With such an approach no changes are needed in master's device driver and SYSMMU driver seamlessly integrates with master's device runtime pm operations. 6. Proposed patches and changes Patch 0001 "pm: Add PM domain notifications" adds support for power domain notifiers (see chapter 5 above). Patch 0002 "ARM: Exynos: bind power domains earlier, on device creation" changes the time, when Exynos power domains are bound to the device. Now this happens on DEVICE_ADD event instead of DRIVER_BIND, so when SYSMMU driver is being initialized, the power domains are already bound and notifiers can be added. Patch 0003 "clk: exynos: add missing smmu_g2d clock and update comments" simply simply adds missing sysmmu related entities to Exynos clock driver. Patch 0004 "drivers: base: add notifier for failed driver bind" add event for failed driver bind, so things prepared in DRIVER_BIND event can be cleaned up, similar to DRIVER_UNBOUND. Patch 0005 "drivers: convert suppress_bind_attrs parameter into flags" is preparation for adding new flags to struct device_driver. Patch 0006 "drivers: iommu: add notify about failed bind" adds support for recently introduced failed driver bind event to IOMMU subsystem. Patch 0007 "ARM: dma-mapping: arm_iommu_attach_device: automatically set max_seg_size" moves common operation of setting dma max_seg_size directly to arm_iommu_attach_device function. Patch 0008 "ARM: dma-mapping: add helpers for managing default per-device dma mappings" adds convenient helpers for the most common case of setting up per-device, separate DMA (IO) address space. Patch 0009 "ARM: dma-mapping: provide stubs if no ARM_DMA_USE_IOMMU has been selected" fixes usage of IOMMU related ARM DMA-mapping functions in common code. Patch 0010 "drivers: add DRIVER_HAS_OWN_IOMMU_MANAGER flag" adds a flag described in chapter 3. Patch 0011 "DRM: exynos: add DRIVER_HAS_OWN_IOMMU_MANAGER flag to all sub-drivers" marks all Exynos DRM sub-drivers with a flag notifying that they perform own management of DMA (IO) address space. All the code to setup dma-mapping and attach all devices is realy there. Patch 0012 "DRM: Exynos: fix window clear code" is a simple bugfix of broken init code, which triggers issues when used with IOMMU (page fault happens on systems, where bootloader has left framebuffer enabled). Patch 0013 "temporary: media: s5p-mfc: remove DT hacks & initialization custom memory init code" removes all custom memory region handling, to let later demonstrate how to use separate DMA (IO) address spaces from master's device driver. Patch 0014 "devicetree: Update Exynos SYSMMU device tree bindings" adds a few words about proposed solution to SYSMMU device tree bindings documentation. Patch 0015 "ARM: DTS: Exynos4: add System MMU nodes" adds device tree nodes for all SYSMMU controllers found in Exynos 4210 and 4x12 SoC and respective properties to their master devices. Patch 0016-0021 are simple bugfixes and code refactoring to simplify the driver: "iommu: exynos: make driver multiarch friendly", "iommu: exynos: don't read version register on every tlb", "iommu: exynos: remove unused functions", "iommu: exynos: remove useless spinlock", "iommu: exynos: refactor function parameters to simplify code", "iommu: exynos: remove unused functions, part 2". Patch 0022 "iommu: exynos: add support for binding more than one sysmmu to master device" adds support for storing a list of SYSMMU controllers in the master's iommu arch data structure. Patch 0023 "iommu: exynos: init iommu controllers from device tree" finally implements bindings described in patch 0015 and access to particular DMA address space managed by SYSMMU controller via sub-device of predefined name (see chapter 4). Patch 0024 "iommu: exynos: create default iommu-based dma-mapping for master devices" does what patch title says. Patch 0025 "iommu: exynos: add support for runtime_pm" implements power management scheme described in chapter 5. Patch 0026-0028 are cleanup and refactoring to make the code easier to understand: "iommu: exynos: rename variables to reflect their purpose", "iommu: exynos: document internal structures", "iommu: exynos: remove excessive includes and sort others alphabetically". Patch 0029 "temporary: media: s5p-mfc: add support for IOMMU" demonstrates how to use sub-devices to get access to separate DMA (IO) address spaces. The driver is able to work both with and without this patch. Without this patch a common shared address space is created for both SYSMMU controllers (so only 256MiB of total address space is available, see end of chapter 4). 7. Summary All the development of those patches have been done on Exynos4412-based OdroidU3 board and Exynos4210-based UniversalC210, on top of v3.16 kernel with some additional patches to enable HDMI support on Odroid board. This version is available in the following GIT repository: http://git.linaro.org/git/people/marek.szyprowski/linux-dma-mapping.git on branch v3.16-odroid-iommu. However, the version posted here has been rebased on top of linux-next kernel (next-20140804 tag), to make marging the easier once v3.17-rc1 is out. 8.

[PATCH 0/2] ARM: Remove lowmem limit for default CMA region

by Marek Szyprowski

Hello, Russell King recently noticed that limiting default CMA region only to low memory on ARM architecture causes serious memory management issues with machines having a lot of memory (which is mainly available as high memory). More information can be found the following thread: http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.ports.arm.kernel/348441/ Those two patches removes this limit letting kernel to put default CMA region into high memory when this is possible (there is enough high memory available and architecture specific DMA limit fits). This should solve strange OOM issues on systems with lots of RAM (i.e. >1GiB) and large (>256M) CMA area.

[PATCH v2 0/4] CMA & device tree, once again

by Marek Szyprowski

Hello, This is one more respin of the patches which add support for creating reserved memory regions defined in device tree. The last attempt (http://lists.linaro.org/pipermail/linaro-mm-sig/2014-February/003738.html) ended in merging only half of the code, so right now we have complete documentation merged and only basic code, which implements a half of it is written in the documentation. Although the merged patches allow to reserve memory, there is no way of using it for devices and drivers. This situation makes CMA rather useless, as the main architecture (ARM), which used it, has been converted from board-file based system initialization to device tree. Thus there is no place to use direct calls to dma_declare_contiguous() and some new solution, which bases on device tree, is urgently needed. This patch series fixes this issue. It provides two, already widely discussed and already present in the kernel, drivers for reserved memory: first based on DMA-coherent allocator, second using Contiguous Memory Allocator. The first one nicely implements typical 'carved out' reserved memory way of allocating contiguous buffers in a kernel-style way. The memory is used exclusively by devices assigned to the given memory region. The second one allows to reuse reserved memory for movable kernel pages (like disk buffers, anonymous memory) and migrates it out when device to allocates contiguous memory buffer. Both driver provides memory buffers via standard dma-mapping API. The patches have been rebased on top of latest CMA and mm changes merged to akmp kernel tree. To define a 64MiB CMA region following node is needed: multimedia_reserved: multimedia_mem_region { compatible = "shared-dma-pool"; reusable; size = <0x4000000>; alignment = <0x400000>; }; Similarly, one can define 64MiB region with DMA coherent memory: multimedia_reserved: multimedia_mem_region { compatible = "shared-dma-pool"; no-map; size = <0x4000000>; alignment = <0x400000>; }; Then the defined region can be assigned to devices: scaler: scaler@12500000 { memory-region = <&multimedia_reserved>; /* ... */ }; codec: codec@12600000 { memory-region = <&multimedia_reserved>; /* ... */ }; Best regards Marek Szyprowski Samsung R&D Institute Poland Changes since v1: (http://www.spinics.net/lists/arm-kernel/msg343702.html) - fixed possible memory leak in case of reserved memory allocation failure (thanks to Joonsoo Kim) Changes since the version posted in '[PATCH v6 00/11] reserved-memory regions/CMA in devicetree, again' thread http://lists.linaro.org/pipermail/linaro-mm-sig/2014-February/003738.html: - rebased on top of '[PATCH v3 -next 0/9] CMA: generalize CMA reserved area management code' patch series on v3.16-rc3 - improved dma-coherent driver, now it correctly handles assigning more than one device to the given memory region Patch summary: Marek Szyprowski (4): drivers: of: add automated assignment of reserved regions to client devices drivers: of: initialize and assign reserved memory to newly created devices drivers: dma-coherent: add initialization from device tree drivers: dma-contiguous: add initialization from device tree drivers/base/dma-coherent.c | 40 +++++++++++++++++++++++ drivers/base/dma-contiguous.c | 60 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ drivers/of/of_reserved_mem.c | 70 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ drivers/of/platform.c | 7 +++++ include/linux/cma.h | 3 ++ include/linux/of_reserved_mem.h | 7 +++++ mm/cma.c | 62 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++------- 7 files changed, 238 insertions(+), 11 deletions(-) -- 1.9.2

[PATCH 0/7] CMA & device tree, another approach

by Marek Szyprowski

Hello, This is another approach to finish support for reserved memory regions defined in device tree. Previous attempts (http://lists.linaro.org/pipermail/linaro-mm-sig/2014-February/003738.html and https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/7/14/108) ended in merging parts of the code and documentation. Merged patches allow to reserve memory, but there is still no reserved memory drivers nor any code that actually uses reserved memory regions. The final conclusion from the above mentioned threads is that there is no automated reserved memory initialization. All drivers that want to use reserved memory, should initialize it on their own. This patch series provides two driver for reserved memory regions (one based on CMA and one based on dma_coherent allocator). The main improvement comparing to the previous version is removal of automated reserved memory for every device and support for named memory regions. Support for more than one reserved memory region can be considered as a separate DMA address space, so support for more than one region per device has been implemented the same way as support for separate IO/DMA address spaces in my Exynos IOMMU dma-mapping proposal: http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel.samsung-soc/36079 Best regards Marek Szyprowski Samsung R&D Institute Poland Changes since '[PATCH v2 RESEND 0/4] CMA & device tree, once again' version: (https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/7/14/108) - added return error value to of_reserved_mem_device_init() - added support for named memory regions (so more than one region can be defined per device) - added usage example - converted custom reserved memory code used by s5p-mfc driver to the generic reserved memory handling code Patch summary: Marek Szyprowski (7): drivers: of: add return value to of_reserved_mem_device_init drivers: of: add support for named memory regions drivers: dma-coherent: add initialization from device tree drivers: dma-contiguous: add initialization from device tree media: s5p-mfc: replace custom reserved memory init code with generic one ARM: Exynos: convert MFC to generic reserved memory bindings ARM: DTS: exynos4412-odroid*: enable MFC device .../devicetree/bindings/media/s5p-mfc.txt | 16 +-- .../bindings/reserved-memory/reserved-memory.txt | 6 +- arch/arm/boot/dts/exynos4210-origen.dts | 22 +++- arch/arm/boot/dts/exynos4210-smdkv310.dts | 22 +++- arch/arm/boot/dts/exynos4412-odroid-common.dtsi | 24 ++++ arch/arm/boot/dts/exynos4412-origen.dts | 22 +++- arch/arm/boot/dts/exynos4412-smdk4412.dts | 22 +++- arch/arm/boot/dts/exynos5250-arndale.dts | 22 +++- arch/arm/boot/dts/exynos5250-smdk5250.dts | 22 +++- arch/arm/boot/dts/exynos5420-arndale-octa.dts | 22 +++- arch/arm/boot/dts/exynos5420-smdk5420.dts | 22 +++- arch/arm/mach-exynos/exynos.c | 18 --- arch/arm/mach-exynos/mfc.h | 16 --- arch/arm/plat-samsung/Kconfig | 5 - arch/arm/plat-samsung/Makefile | 1 - arch/arm/plat-samsung/s5p-dev-mfc.c | 94 -------------- drivers/base/dma-coherent.c | 138 ++++++++++++++++++--- drivers/base/dma-contiguous.c | 71 +++++++++++ drivers/media/platform/s5p-mfc/s5p_mfc.c | 102 ++++++--------- drivers/of/of_reserved_mem.c | 102 ++++++++++----- include/linux/cma.h | 3 + include/linux/of_reserved_mem.h | 9 +- mm/cma.c | 62 +++++++-- 23 files changed, 552 insertions(+), 291 deletions(-) delete mode 100644 arch/arm/mach-exynos/mfc.h delete mode 100644 arch/arm/plat-samsung/s5p-dev-mfc.c -- 1.9.2
