DMA-API-HOWTO.txt: standardize document format Each text file under Documentation follows a different format. Some doesn't even have titles! Change its representation to follow the adopted standard, using ReST markups for it to be parseable by Sphinx: - Mark titles; - Mark literal blocks; - Mark some literals that would otherwise produce warnings; - Mark authorship.

Linux-2.6.12-rc2 Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!

DMA-API: Clarify physical/bus address distinction The DMA-API documentation sometimes refers to "physical addresses" when it really means "bus addresses." Sometimes these are identical, but they may be different if the bridge leading to the bus performs address translation. Update the documentation to use "bus address" when appropriate. Also, consistently capitalize "DMA", use parens with function names, use dev_printk() in examples, and reword a few sections for clarity. No functional change; documentation changes only.

PCI: Add pci_bus_addr_t David Ahern reported that d63e2e1f3df9 ("sparc/PCI: Clip bridge windows to fit in upstream windows") fails to boot on sparc/T5-8: pci 0000:06:00.0: reg 0x184: can't handle BAR above 4GB (bus address 0x110204000) The problem is that sparc64 assumed that dma_addr_t only needed to hold DMA addresses, i.e., bus addresses returned via the DMA API (dma_map_single(), etc.), while the PCI core assumed dma_addr_t could hold *any* bus address, including raw BAR values. On sparc64, all DMA addresses fit in 32 bits, so dma_addr_t is a 32-bit type. However, BAR values can be 64 bits wide, so they don't fit in a dma_addr_t. d63e2e1f3df9 added new checking that tripped over this mismatch. Add pci_bus_addr_t, which is wide enough to hold any PCI bus address, including both raw BAR values and DMA addresses. This will be 64 bits on 64-bit platforms and on platforms with a 64-bit dma_addr_t. Then dma_addr_t only needs to be wide enough to hold addresses from the DMA API.

[PATCH] dma doc updates This updates the DMA API documentation to address a few issues: - The dma_map_sg() call results are used like pci_map_sg() results: using sg_dma_address() and sg_dma_len(). That's not wholly obvious to folk reading _only_ the "new" DMA-API.txt writeup. - Buffers allocated by dma_alloc_coherent() may not be completely free of coherency concerns ... some CPUs also have write buffers that may need to be flushed. - Cacheline coherence issues are now mentioned as being among issues which affect dma buffers, and complicate/prevent using of static and (especially) stack based buffers with the DMA calls. I don't think many drivers currently need to worry about flushing write buffers, but I did hit it with one SOC using external SDRAM for DMA descriptors: without explicit writebuffer flushing, the on-chip DMA controller accessed descriptors before the CPU completed the writes.

DMA-API: Clarify physical/bus address distinction The DMA-API documentation sometimes refers to "physical addresses" when it really means "bus addresses." Sometimes these are identical, but they may be different if the bridge leading to the bus performs address translation. Update the documentation to use "bus address" when appropriate. Also, consistently capitalize "DMA", use parens with function names, use dev_printk() in examples, and reword a few sections for clarity. No functional change; documentation changes only.

DMA-API: Clarify physical/bus address distinction The DMA-API documentation sometimes refers to "physical addresses" when it really means "bus addresses." Sometimes these are identical, but they may be different if the bridge leading to the bus performs address translation. Update the documentation to use "bus address" when appropriate. Also, consistently capitalize "DMA", use parens with function names, use dev_printk() in examples, and reword a few sections for clarity. No functional change; documentation changes only.

PCI: Add pci_bus_addr_t David Ahern reported that d63e2e1f3df9 ("sparc/PCI: Clip bridge windows to fit in upstream windows") fails to boot on sparc/T5-8: pci 0000:06:00.0: reg 0x184: can't handle BAR above 4GB (bus address 0x110204000) The problem is that sparc64 assumed that dma_addr_t only needed to hold DMA addresses, i.e., bus addresses returned via the DMA API (dma_map_single(), etc.), while the PCI core assumed dma_addr_t could hold *any* bus address, including raw BAR values. On sparc64, all DMA addresses fit in 32 bits, so dma_addr_t is a 32-bit type. However, BAR values can be 64 bits wide, so they don't fit in a dma_addr_t. d63e2e1f3df9 added new checking that tripped over this mismatch. Add pci_bus_addr_t, which is wide enough to hold any PCI bus address, including both raw BAR values and DMA addresses. This will be 64 bits on 64-bit platforms and on platforms with a 64-bit dma_addr_t. Then dma_addr_t only needs to be wide enough to hold addresses from the DMA API.

Linux-2.6.12-rc2 Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it.

[PATCH] dma doc updates This updates the DMA API documentation to address a few issues: - The dma_map_sg() call results are used like pci_map_sg() results: using sg_dma_address() and sg_dma_len(). That's not wholly obvious to folk reading _only_ the "new" DMA-API.txt writeup. - Buffers allocated by dma_alloc_coherent() may not be completely free of coherency concerns ... some CPUs also have write buffers that may need to be flushed. - Cacheline coherence issues are now mentioned as being among issues which affect dma buffers, and complicate/prevent using of static and (especially) stack based buffers with the DMA calls. I don't think many drivers currently need to worry about flushing write buffers, but I did hit it with one SOC using external SDRAM for DMA descriptors: without explicit writebuffer flushing, the on-chip DMA controller accessed descriptors before the CPU completed the writes.

DMA-API: Clarify physical/bus address distinction The DMA-API documentation sometimes refers to "physical addresses" when it really means "bus addresses." Sometimes these are identical, but they may be different if the bridge leading to the bus performs address translation. Update the documentation to use "bus address" when appropriate. Also, consistently capitalize "DMA", use parens with function names, use dev_printk() in examples, and reword a few sections for clarity. No functional change; documentation changes only.

PCI: Add pci_bus_addr_t David Ahern reported that d63e2e1f3df9 ("sparc/PCI: Clip bridge windows to fit in upstream windows") fails to boot on sparc/T5-8: pci 0000:06:00.0: reg 0x184: can't handle BAR above 4GB (bus address 0x110204000) The problem is that sparc64 assumed that dma_addr_t only needed to hold DMA addresses, i.e., bus addresses returned via the DMA API (dma_map_single(), etc.), while the PCI core assumed dma_addr_t could hold *any* bus address, including raw BAR values. On sparc64, all DMA addresses fit in 32 bits, so dma_addr_t is a 32-bit type. However, BAR values can be 64 bits wide, so they don't fit in a dma_addr_t. d63e2e1f3df9 added new checking that tripped over this mismatch. Add pci_bus_addr_t, which is wide enough to hold any PCI bus address, including both raw BAR values and DMA addresses. This will be 64 bits on 64-bit platforms and on platforms with a 64-bit dma_addr_t. Then dma_addr_t only needs to be wide enough to hold addresses from the DMA API.

We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it.

DMA-API: Clarify physical/bus address distinction The DMA-API documentation sometimes refers to "physical addresses" when it really means "bus addresses." Sometimes these are identical, but they may be different if the bridge leading to the bus performs address translation. Update the documentation to use "bus address" when appropriate. Also, consistently capitalize "DMA", use parens with function names, use dev_printk() in examples, and reword a few sections for clarity. No functional change; documentation changes only.

We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it.

docs: dma-api: replace consistent with coherent For consistency, always use the term "coherent" when talking about memory that is not subject to CPU caching effects. The term "consistent" is a relic of a long-removed PCI DMA API (pci_alloc_consistent() and pci_free_consistent() functions).

Sometimes these are identical, but they may be different if the bridge leading to the bus performs address translation. Update the documentation to use "bus address" when appropriate. Also, consistently capitalize "DMA", use parens with function names, use dev_printk() in examples, and reword a few sections for clarity. No functional change; documentation changes only.

DMA-API: Clarify physical/bus address distinction The DMA-API documentation sometimes refers to "physical addresses" when it really means "bus addresses." Sometimes these are identical, but they may be different if the bridge leading to the bus performs address translation. Update the documentation to use "bus address" when appropriate. Also, consistently capitalize "DMA", use parens with function names, use dev_printk() in examples, and reword a few sections for clarity. No functional change; documentation changes only.

PCI: Add pci_bus_addr_t David Ahern reported that d63e2e1f3df9 ("sparc/PCI: Clip bridge windows to fit in upstream windows") fails to boot on sparc/T5-8: pci 0000:06:00.0: reg 0x184: can't handle BAR above 4GB (bus address 0x110204000) The problem is that sparc64 assumed that dma_addr_t only needed to hold DMA addresses, i.e., bus addresses returned via the DMA API (dma_map_single(), etc.), while the PCI core assumed dma_addr_t could hold *any* bus address, including raw BAR values. On sparc64, all DMA addresses fit in 32 bits, so dma_addr_t is a 32-bit type. However, BAR values can be 64 bits wide, so they don't fit in a dma_addr_t. d63e2e1f3df9 added new checking that tripped over this mismatch. Add pci_bus_addr_t, which is wide enough to hold any PCI bus address, including both raw BAR values and DMA addresses. This will be 64 bits on 64-bit platforms and on platforms with a 64-bit dma_addr_t. Then dma_addr_t only needs to be wide enough to hold addresses from the DMA API. [bhelgaas: changelog, bugzilla, Kconfig to ensure pci_bus_addr_t is at least as wide as dma_addr_t, documentation] Fixes: d63e2e1f3df9 ("sparc/PCI: Clip bridge windows to fit in upstream windows") Fixes: 23b13bc76f35 ("PCI: Fail safely if we can't handle BARs larger than 4GB") Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/CAE9FiQU1gJY1LYrxs+ma5LCTEEe4xmtjRG0aXJ9K_Tsu+m9Wuw@mail.gmail.com Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1427857069-6789-1-git-send-email-yinghai@kernel.org Link: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=96231 Reported-by: David Ahern <david.ahern@oracle.com> Tested-by: David Ahern <david.ahern@oracle.com> Signed-off-by: Yinghai Lu <yinghai@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Bjorn Helgaas <bhelgaas@google.com> Acked-by: David S.

Linux-2.6.12-rc2 Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it.

DMA-API: Clarify physical/bus address distinction The DMA-API documentation sometimes refers to "physical addresses" when it really means "bus addresses." Sometimes these are identical, but they may be different if the bridge leading to the bus performs address translation. Update the documentation to use "bus address" when appropriate. Also, consistently capitalize "DMA", use parens with function names, use dev_printk() in examples, and reword a few sections for clarity. No functional change; documentation changes only.

Documentation: DMA-API-HOWTO.txt: rename ARCH_KMALLOC_MINALIGN to ARCH_DMA_MINALIGN ARCH_KMALLOC_MINALIGN was renamed to ARCH_DMA_MINALIGN (the commit a6eb9fe105d5de0053b261148cee56c94b4720ca). ARCH_DMA_MINALIGN must be defined instead of ARCH_KMALLOC_MINALIGN to ensure that kmalloc'ed buffer is DMA-safe.

Linux-2.6.12-rc2 Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!

DMA-API-HOWTO.txt: standardize document format Each text file under Documentation follows a different format. Some doesn't even have titles! Change its representation to follow the adopted standard, using ReST markups for it to be parseable by Sphinx: - Mark titles; - Mark literal blocks; - Mark some literals that would otherwise produce warnings; - Mark authorship.
