I'm ok in principle with this patch, with the minor issue that since
commit 7b8c87b297a7 ("arm64: cacheinfo: Update cache_line_size detected
from DT or PPTT") queued for 5.3 cache_line_size() gets the information
from DT or ACPI. The reason for this change is that the information is
used for performance tuning rather than DMA coherency.

You can go for a direct cache_type_cwg() check in here, unless Robin
(cc'ed) has a better idea.

Got it, thanks.
I believe coherency_max_size is zero in case of coherent is false,
so I'll modify the patch as following. Does it make sense?

The coherency_max_size gives you the largest cache line in the system,
independent of whether a device is coherent or not. You may have a
device that does not snoop L1/L2 but there is a transparent L3 (system
cache) with a larger cache line that the device may be able to snoop.
The coherency_max_size and therefore cache_line_size() would give you
this L3 value but the device would work fine since CWG <=
ARCH_DMA_MINALIGN.

I think the easiest here is to add a local variable:

        int cls = 4 << cache_type_cwg();

and check it against ARCH_DMA_MINALIGN.


Agreed, and I'd say we should keep the taint too, since if this situation ever was hit the potential crashes would be weird and random and not obviously DMA-related.

Robin.
