Currently dmabuf p2p memory doesn't present itself in the form of struct pages and the memory can't be easily used with code that expects memory in that form.

Well, this won't fly at all.

First of all DMA-buf is *not* about passing struct pages around, drivers are *only* supposed to use the DMA addresses.

That code can't use the pages inside a DMA-buf is absolutely intentional. We even mangle the page pointers from the sg_tables because people sometimes get the impression they can use those.

See function mangle_sg_table() in dma-buf.c

     /* To catch abuse of the underlying struct page by importers mix
      * up the bits, but take care to preserve the low SG_ bits to
      * not corrupt the sgt. The mixing is undone in __unmap_dma_buf
      * before passing the sgt back to the exporter. */
     for_each_sgtable_sg(sg_table, sg, i)
             sg->page_link ^= ~0xffUL;

...

Add support for paged attachment mappings. We use existing dmabuf APIs to create a mapped attachment (dma_buf_attach() & dma_buf_map_attachment()), and we create struct pages for this mapping. We write the dma_addr's from the sg_table into the created pages.

Hui, what? Not really.

Thanks for talking a look Christian,

FWIW, the patch doesn't try to use the pages backing the sg_table at all. The patch allocates pages here:

+ priv->pages = kvmalloc_array(priv->num_pages, sizeof(struct page), + GFP_KERNEL);

And writes the dma_addrs to the pages here:

+ /* write each dma addresses from sgt to each page */ + pg_idx = 0; + for_each_sgtable_dma_sg(priv->sgt, sg, i) { + size_t len = sg_dma_len(sg); + dma_addr_t dma_addr = sg_dma_address(sg); + + BUG_ON(!PAGE_ALIGNED(len)); + while (len > 0) { + priv->pages[pg_idx].zone_device_data = (void *)dma_addr; + pg_idx++; + dma_addr += PAGE_SIZE; + len -= PAGE_SIZE; + } + }

But, from your response it doesn't seem like it matters. It seems you're not interested in creating struct pages for the DMA-buf at all. My options for this RFC are:

1. Use p2pdma so I get struct pages for the device memory, or 2. Modify the page_pool, networking drivers, and sk_buff to use dma_addr instead of a struct page.

As far as I understand option #2 is not feasible or desired. I'll do some homework to investigate the feasibility of using p2pdma instead, and CCing the maintainers of p2pdma. The cover letter of the RFC is here:

https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/20230710223304.1174642-1-almasrymina@google.c...

If there is something obvious to you that is blocking utilizing p2pdma for this work, please do let me know.

Regards, Christian.

...

These pages can then be passed into code that expects struct pages and can largely operate on these pages with minimal modifications:

1. The pages need not be dma mapped. The dma addr can be queried from page->zone_device_data and used directly.
2. The pages are not kmappable.

Add a new ioctl that enables the user to create a struct page backed dmabuf attachment mapping. This ioctl returns a new file descriptor which represents the dmabuf pages. The pages are freed when (a) the user closes the file, and (b) the struct pages backing the dmabuf are no longer in use. Once the pages are no longer in use, the mapped attachment is removed.

The support added in this patch should be generic - the pages are created by the base code, but the user specifies the type of page to create using the dmabuf_create_pages_info->type flag. The base code hands of any handling specific to the use case of the ops of that page type.
