Subject: [PATCH] MA-21654 Use dma_alloc_pages in vb2_dma_sg_alloc_compacted

On system with "CONFIG_ZONE_DMA32=y", if the allocated physical address is
greater than 4G, swiotlb will be used. It will lead below defects.
1) Impact performance due to an extra memcpy.
2) May meet below error due to swiotlb_max_mapping_size()
is 256K (IO_TLB_SIZE * IO_TLB_SEGSIZE).
"swiotlb buffer is full (sz: 393216 bytes), total 65536 (slots),
used 2358 (slots)"

To avoid those defects, use dma_alloc_pages() instead of alloc_pages()
in vb2_dma_sg_alloc_compacted().

I wonder if it's suitable to us the config (CONFIG_NO_DMA=y) to build?
Also, there are other undefined references no related to the patch.

Indeed, without ZONE-DMA32 it would be difficult for any allocator to
support this at all. SWIOTLB is merely a symptom - if it wasn't enabled,
the dma_map_sgtable() operation would just fail entirely when any page
is beyond the device's reach.

As I mentioned before, I think it might make the most sense to make the
whole thing into a "proper" dma_alloc_sgtable() function, which can then
be used with dma_sync_sgtable_*() as dma_alloc_pages() is used with
dma_sync_single_*() (and then dma_alloc_noncontiguous() clearly falls as
the special in-between case).

Robin.

First of all, thanks a lot for the patch! Please check my review comments below.

Is CONFIG_ZONE_DMA32 really the factor that triggers the problem? My
understanding was that the problem was that the hardware has 32-bit
DMA, but the system has physical memory at addresses beyond the first
4G.

FWIW buf->dev already points to the right device - although we would
need to move the assignment in vb2_dma_sg_alloc() to a place higher in
that function before calling this function.

Hmm, when I was proposing dma_alloc_pages(), I missed that it returns
a DMA handle. That on its own can be handled by saving the returned
handles somewhere in struct vb2_dma_sg_buf, but there is a bigger
problem - the function would actually create a mapping if the DMA
device requires some mapping management (e.g. is behind an IOMMU),
which is undesirable, because we create the mapping ourselves below
anyway...

@Christoph Hellwig @Robin Murphy I need your thoughts on this as
well. Would it make sense to have a variant of dma_alloc_pages() that
only allocates the pages, but doesn't perform the mapping? (Or a flag
that tells the implementation to skip creating a mapping.)

The right value should be already available in buf->dma_dir.

We also need to use dma_free_pages() to free the memory.

Okay, so that is the same thing that I was proposing from the
beginning of the original thread that reported the swiotlb issues.
Somehow I got convinced that it wasn't well received. Thanks for
clarifying!

Then it sounds like we just need someone to implement it?

Let me CC +Sergey Senozhatsky for visibility as well.

You should NEVER disable CONFIG_ZONE_DMA32 for a system that has
memory > 4GB. I've made this point repeatedly, but the ARM64 maintainers
insist on making it configurable instead of selecting it like most other
64-bit architetures that aren't guaranteed to always use a IOMMU.

We need to stop that.

dma_map_pages needs to map the pages as part of finding out that the
allocation actually works. So skipping it can't really be done.

So why do you want to create your own mapping anyway?

Why not just use dma_alloc_noncontiguous if the caller wants an sgtable
anyway?

Because we don't need the restriction of the allocation being
DMA-contiguous (and thus having to fall back to physically-contiguous in
the absence of an IOMMU). That's what vb2_dma_contig already does,
whereas IIUC vb2_dma_sg is for devices which can handle genuine
scatter-gather DMA (and so are less likely to have an IOMMU, and more
likely to need the best shot at piecing together large allocations).

Thanks,
Robin.

Let's just extent dma_alloc_noncontiguous with a max_dma_segments
parameter instead of adding yet another API.

Sure, that could work equally well, and might even help make its
existing usage a bit clearer.

I have a crude (and untested) series of patches that extend
dma_alloc_noncontiguous() with scatter-gather allocations according to
the new max_dma_segments parameter.

Things that I don't like about it:

1) It adds more code than it removes (even if I factor in the custom
allocation code removed from V4L2 vb2-dma-sg and dma-iommu).

2) The allocation scheme follows the current dma-iommu allocation code,
which uses __GFP_NORETRY for allocation orders higher than the minimum
allowed, which means that it's more likely to end up with smaller
segments than the current vb2-dma-sg allocation code. However, I made it
calculate the minimum order based on the allocation size and
max_dma_segments, so it should still be able to satisfy the hardware
constraints.

3) For platforms which use neither dma-direct nor dma-iommu (i.e. some
custom platform-specific dma_map_ops), we don't have much of an idea on
how to allocate the memory (but then neither vb2-dma-sg had), so it's
assumed that plain alloc_pages_node() will just work.

4) ...and, some of those platforms (like ARM) may have their own IOMMU
integration, which we have no idea about and we will unnecessarily
allocate physically-contiguous memory.

Things that I like about it:

a) It basically reuses the allocation code from dma-iommu. (dma-iommu
can be changed to call into dma_common_alloc_pages_noncontig().)

b) It handles most of the DMA constraints (GFP_DMA/32, max number of
segments, max segment size), so one can use it quite confidently to
allocate something that would work with their DMA engine without the
need for swiotlb.

c) With it, I could remove the custom allocation from V4L2 vb2-dma-sg.

The following is just a snippet of the core code so you can tell me if
it really makes sense going this way. If so, I can send a proper RFC
with all the bits and also changes in the API users.

Is the change merged? If merged, in which version, so I can test on my device. Thanks!

Sadly nothing really came out of it. The code I posted was just a
quick attempt to implement what was suggested in the thread and still
has some open items, which need some follow up. Maybe I should just go
ahead and post it as a proper RFC series instead.
