Thanks Russell,
The intel driver changes seem valid (we are testing them now).
According to DMA-API-HOWTO, the coherent mask will always succeed if
the regular mask succeeded, so the code can be further simplified as
well to basically match the example in DMA-API-HOWTO.
This is my proposed change to the intel drivers. Comments?
+ if (!dma_set_mask(&pdev->dev, DMA_BIT_MASK(64))) {
+ pci_using_dac = true;
+ /* coherent mask for the same size will always succeed if
+ * dma_set_mask does
+ */
+ dma_set_coherent_mask(&pdev->dev, DMA_BIT_MASK(64));
+ } else if (!dma_set_mask(&pdev->dev, DMA_BIT_MASK(32))) {
+ pci_using_dac = false;
+ dma_set_coherent_mask(&pdev->dev, DMA_BIT_MASK(32));
+ } else {
+ dev_err(&pdev->dev, "%s: DMA configuration failed: %d\n",
+ __func__, err);
+ err = -EIO;
+ goto err_dma;
}
