I've noticed that your implementations for get_scatterlist (at least for the i915 driver) doesn't return the sg table mapped into the device address space. I've checked and the documentation makes it clear that this should be the case (and we really need this to support certain insane hw), but the get/put_scatterlist names are a bit misleading. Proposal: - use struct sg_table instead of scatterlist like you've already done in you branch. Simply more consistent with the dma api. - rename get/put_scatterlist into map/unmap for consistency with all the map/unmap dma api functions. The attachement would then serve as the abstract cookie to the backing storage, similar to how struct page * works as an abstract cookie for dma_map/unmap_page. The only special thing is that struct device * parameter because that's already part of the attachment. - add new wrapper functions dma_buf_map_attachment and dma_buf_unmap_attachement to hide all the pointer/vtable-chasing that we currently expose to users of this interface.
