mm: make INVALID_PHYS_ADDR a generic macro

2025-11-17T01:28:26Z

INVALID_PHYS_ADDR has very similar definitions across the code base. Hence just move that inside header for more generic usage. Also drop the now redundant ones which are no longer required.

swiotlb: Remove redundant __GFP_NOWARN

2025-08-11T09:29:38Z

Commit 16f5dfbc851b ("gfp: include __GFP_NOWARN in GFP_NOWAIT") made GFP_NOWAIT implicitly include __GFP_NOWARN. Therefore, explicit __GFP_NOWARN combined with GFP_NOWAIT (e.g., `GFP_NOWAIT | __GFP_NOWARN`) is now redundant. Let's clean up these redundant flags across subsystems. No functional changes.

dma-mapping: replace zone_dma_bits by zone_dma_limit

2024-08-22T04:18:00Z

The hardware DMA limit might not be power of 2. When RAM range starts above 0, say 4GB, DMA limit of 30 bits should end at 5GB. A single high bit can not encode this limit. Use a plain address for the DMA zone limit instead. Since the DMA zone can now potentially span beyond 4GB physical limit of DMA32, make sure to use DMA zone for GFP_DMA32 allocations in that case.

swiotlb: reduce swiotlb pool lookups

2024-07-10T05:59:03Z

With CONFIG_SWIOTLB_DYNAMIC enabled, each round-trip map/unmap pair in the swiotlb results in 6 calls to swiotlb_find_pool(). In multiple places, the pool is found and used in one function, and then must be found again in the next function that is called because only the tlb_addr is passed as an argument. These are the six call sites: dma_direct_map_page: 1. swiotlb_map -> swiotlb_tbl_map_single -> swiotlb_bounce dma_direct_unmap_page: 2. dma_direct_sync_single_for_cpu -> is_swiotlb_buffer 3. dma_direct_sync_single_for_cpu -> swiotlb_sync_single_for_cpu -> swiotlb_bounce 4. is_swiotlb_buffer 5. swiotlb_tbl_unmap_single -> swiotlb_del_transient 6. swiotlb_tbl_unmap_single -> swiotlb_release_slots Reduce the number of calls by finding the pool at a higher level, and passing it as an argument instead of searching again. A key change is for is_swiotlb_buffer() to return a pool pointer instead of a boolean, and then pass this pool pointer to subsequent swiotlb functions. There are 9 occurrences of is_swiotlb_buffer() used to test if a buffer is a swiotlb buffer before calling a swiotlb function. To reduce code duplication in getting the pool pointer and passing it as an argument, introduce inline wrappers for this pattern. The generated code is essentially unchanged. Since is_swiotlb_buffer() no longer returns a boolean, rename some functions to reflect the change: * swiotlb_find_pool() becomes __swiotlb_find_pool() * is_swiotlb_buffer() becomes swiotlb_find_pool() * is_xen_swiotlb_buffer() becomes xen_swiotlb_find_pool() With these changes, a round-trip map/unmap pair requires only 2 pool lookups (listed using the new names and wrappers): dma_direct_unmap_page: 1. dma_direct_sync_single_for_cpu -> swiotlb_find_pool 2. swiotlb_tbl_unmap_single -> swiotlb_find_pool These changes come from noticing the inefficiencies in a code review, not from performance measurements. With CONFIG_SWIOTLB_DYNAMIC, __swiotlb_find_pool() is not trivial, and it uses an RCU read lock, so avoiding the redundant calls helps performance in a hot path. When CONFIG_SWIOTLB_DYNAMIC is *not* set, the code size reduction is minimal and the perf benefits are likely negligible, but no harm is done. No functional change is intended.

dma: fix DMA sync for drivers not calling dma_set_mask*()

2024-05-09T17:00:29Z

There are several reports that the DMA sync shortcut broke non-coherent devices. dev->dma_need_sync is false after the &device allocation and if a driver didn't call dma_set_mask*(), it will still be false even if the device is not DMA-coherent and thus needs synchronizing. Due to historical reasons, there's still a lot of drivers not calling it. Invert the boolean, so that the sync will be performed by default and the shortcut will be enabled only when calling dma_set_mask*().

dma: avoid redundant calls for sync operations

2024-05-07T11:29:53Z

Quite often, devices do not need dma_sync operations on x86_64 at least. Indeed, when dev_is_dma_coherent(dev) is true and dev_use_swiotlb(dev) is false, iommu_dma_sync_single_for_cpu() and friends do nothing. However, indirectly calling them when CONFIG_RETPOLINE=y consumes about 10% of cycles on a cpu receiving packets from softirq at ~100Gbit rate. Even if/when CONFIG_RETPOLINE is not set, there is a cost of about 3%. Add dev->need_dma_sync boolean and turn it off during the device initialization (dma_set_mask()) depending on the setup: dev_is_dma_coherent() for the direct DMA, !(sync_single_for_device || sync_single_for_cpu) or the new dma_map_ops flag, %DMA_F_CAN_SKIP_SYNC, advertised for non-NULL DMA ops. Then later, if/when swiotlb is used for the first time, the flag is reset back to on, from swiotlb_tbl_map_single(). On iavf, the UDP trafficgen with XDP_DROP in skb mode test shows +3-5% increase for direct DMA.

swiotlb: remove alloc_size argument to swiotlb_tbl_map_single()

2024-05-07T11:29:28Z

Currently swiotlb_tbl_map_single() takes alloc_align_mask and alloc_size arguments to specify an swiotlb allocation that is larger than mapping_size. This larger allocation is used solely by iommu_dma_map_single() to handle untrusted devices that should not have DMA visibility to memory pages that are partially used for unrelated kernel data. Having two arguments to specify the allocation is redundant. While alloc_align_mask naturally specifies the alignment of the starting address of the allocation, it can also implicitly specify the size by rounding up the mapping_size to that alignment. Additionally, the current approach has an edge case bug. iommu_dma_map_page() already does the rounding up to compute the alloc_size argument. But swiotlb_tbl_map_single() then calculates the alignment offset based on the DMA min_align_mask, and adds that offset to alloc_size. If the offset is non-zero, the addition may result in a value that is larger than the max the swiotlb can allocate. If the rounding up is done _after_ the alignment offset is added to the mapping_size (and the original mapping_size conforms to the value returned by swiotlb_max_mapping_size), then the max that the swiotlb can allocate will not be exceeded. In view of these issues, simplify the swiotlb_tbl_map_single() interface by removing the alloc_size argument. Most call sites pass the same value for mapping_size and alloc_size, and they pass alloc_align_mask as zero. Just remove the redundant argument from these callers, as they will see no functional change. For iommu_dma_map_page() also remove the alloc_size argument, and have swiotlb_tbl_map_single() compute the alloc_size by rounding up mapping_size after adding the offset based on min_align_mask. This has the side effect of fixing the edge case bug but with no other functional change. Also add a sanity test on the alloc_align_mask. While IOMMU code currently ensures the granule is not larger than PAGE_SIZE, if that guarantee were to be removed in the future, the downstream effect on the swiotlb might go unnoticed until strange allocation failures occurred. Tested on an ARM64 system with 16K page size and some kernel test-only hackery to allow modifying the DMA min_align_mask and the granule size that becomes the alloc_align_mask. Tested these combinations with a variety of original memory addresses and sizes, including those that reproduce the edge case bug: * 4K granule and 0 min_align_mask * 4K granule and 0xFFF min_align_mask (4K - 1) * 16K granule and 0xFFF min_align_mask * 64K granule and 0xFFF min_align_mask * 64K granule and 0x3FFF min_align_mask (16K - 1) With the changes, all combinations pass.
