[Linaro-mm-sig] Re: [PATCH v7 03/10] accel/rocket: Add IOCTL for BO creation

On 2025-06-06 7:28 am, Tomeu Vizoso wrote:

This uses the SHMEM DRM helpers and we map right away to the CPU and NPU sides, as all buffers are expected to be accessed from both.

v2:

• Sync the IOMMUs for the other cores when mapping and unmapping.

v3:

• Make use of GPL-2.0-only for the copyright notice (Jeff Hugo)

v6:

• Use mutexes guard (Markus Elfring)

v7:

• Assign its own IOMMU domain to each client, for isolation (Daniel Stone and Robin Murphy)

This means "DMA-unmap the pages", right? If things have been done correctly then the iommu_unmap() above will already have removed the actual translation all cores' IOMMUs were using.

Is this expected to be a DMA address implicitly generated by the dma_map_sg() in drm_gem_shmem_get_pages_sgt()? I would strongly recommend against relying on that - at the moment it happens that iommu-dma still does complete dma_map_* operations in the unattached DMA ops domain, mostly redundantly, but I've long been meaning to optimise that so that it only performs any necessary cache maintenance on the underlying memory when the caller is already using their own IOMMU domain. At that point the returned DMA address is likely to just be the PA, and this tactic probably won't work.

• 		shmem_obj->sgt,

• if (ret < 0 || ret < args->size) {

• drm_err(dev, "failed to map buffer: size=%d request_size=%u\n",
  

• 	ret, args->size);
  

• ret = -ENOMEM;

• }
• /* iommu_map_sgtable might have aligned the size */
• rkt_obj->size = ret;
• dma_sync_sgtable_for_device(dev->dev, shmem_obj->sgt, DMA_BIDIRECTIONAL);

What's this for? The buffer is already in for_device state when it initially comes back from get_pages_sgt, and hasn't even been touched yet anyway.

Thanks, Robin.
