Hi Alex, I was looking at your recent fix for SeaBIOS NVME. I agree that it is not valid to write to the f-segment during runtime. However, I was struggling to understand the PRP list management in the nvme.c code.
I came up with a different implementation that avoids allocating another buffer in the "high zone". Instead, the code in this patch series builds the page list in the existing "dma bounce buffer". I don't have a good way to test this on real hardware. It passes simple qemu tests (both with and without kvm). For example: qemu-system-x86_64 -k en-us -snapshot -L test -chardev stdio,id=seabios -device isa-debugcon,iobase=0x402,chardev=seabios -m 512 -drive file=dos-drivec,if=none,id=drive0 -device nvme,drive=drive0,serial=nvme-1 -boot menu=on Thanks, -Kevin Kevin O'Connor (5): nvme: Rework nvme_io_readwrite() to return -1 on error nvme: Add nvme_bounce_xfer() helper function nvme: Convert nvme_build_prpl() to nvme_prpl_xfer() nvme: Pass prp1 and prp2 directly to nvme_io_xfer() nvme: Build the page list in the existing dma buffer src/hw/nvme-int.h | 7 --- src/hw/nvme.c | 143 ++++++++++++++++++++-------------------------- 2 files changed, 61 insertions(+), 89 deletions(-) -- 2.31.1 _______________________________________________ SeaBIOS mailing list -- seabios@seabios.org To unsubscribe send an email to seabios-le...@seabios.org
