Hi Bhaskar,

When you use ddi_dma_alloc_handle() with a pseudo device, the routine calls
into the pseudonex.c module. The pseudonex module routine for ddi_dma_alloc_handle
calls is ddi_no_dma_allochdl(), which returns DDI_DMA_BADATTR (see the
code in pseudonex.c and sunddi.c).

Max yes I'm assigning smu_generic_dma_attr to tmp_dma_attr before making the 
call. I've tried a bunch of things like changing the attributes but I still 
keep getting the error. Would switching to DDI_DMA_FORCE_PHYSICAL be advised? 
Since I'm writing this driver for a pseudo device I'm sure IOMMU virtual 
addresses won't be used.

Hi I'm using an x86 vm which has an emulated IOMMU on it. The following are the 
attributes that I'm passing to ddi_dma_alloc_handle

static ddi_dma_attr_t smu_generic_dma_attr = {
        DMA_ATTR_V0,                                    /* dma_attr_version */
        (unsigned long long)0,                          /* low DMA address 
range */
        (unsigned long long)0xffffffff,  /* high DMA address range */
        (unsigned long long)0xffffffff, /* DMA counter register */
         8,   /* DMA address alignment */
        0x07, /* DMA burstsizes  */
        1, /* min DMA size */
        (unsigned long long)0xffffffff, /* max DMA size */
        (unsigned long long)0xffffffff, /* segment boundary */
        16, /* dma_attr_sglen */
        512, /* granularity of device */
        0 /* bus specific DMA flags */
};

The call I make is ddi_dma_alloc_handle (instance->dip, &tmp_dma_attr, 
DDI_DMA_DONTWAIT, 0, &acmd->cmd_dmahandle)
I assume you are assigning tmp_dma_attr to smu_generic_dma_attr before
making this call?  What happens if you pass &smu_generic_dma_attr instead
of &tmp_dma_attr?

In the 3rd parameter, I've tried using DDI_DMA_SLEEP as well but I still get 
the DDI_DMA_BADATTR error from the API.

I don't see where I'm going wrong in making the call.

Regards,
Bhaskar.
