Generally, USB devices are accessed through the IOMMU. However, even in this case, dma-ranges is not necessarily required. There are many examples of this in arch/arm64/boot/dts/. For example: arch/arm64/boot/dts/arm/juno.dt.yaml. Not sure, but maybe I found the answer. vi drivers/of/address.c +457 457 Thus we treat the absence of 458 * "ranges" as equivalent to an empty "ranges" property which means 459 * a 1:1 translation at that level. 466 * This quirk also applies for 'dma-ranges' which frequently exist in 467 * child nodes without 'dma-ranges' in the parent nodes. --RobH 475 if (ranges == NULL || rlen == 0) { 476 offset = of_read_number(addr, na); 477 memset(addr, 0, pna * 4); 478 pr_debug("empty ranges; 1:1 translation\n"); 479 goto finish; 480 } By the way: At first, I thought that these errors was detected by YAML. Now, I found that it was generated by "make dtbs". That's why it was reported by any YAML.

The swiotlb is primarily about the streaming mappings with dma_map_*(), which has to copy all data sent to the device. dma_alloc_coherent() is a rare operation and less impacted by DMA limitations.

Does it mean that there are no devices on this bus that can do DMA? Usually there should be a dma-ranges property to identify that DMA is possible and what the limits are, though we have failed to enforce that. Also note that the #address-cells=<1> means that any device under this bus is assumed to only support 32-bit addressing, and DMA will have to go through a slow swiotlb in the absence of an IOMMU. Arnd
