Hi all,

Hi!

Hi Konrad,

During debug a device only support 32bits DMA(Qualcomm Atheros AP) in our
LS1043A 64bits ARM SOC, we found that the invoke of dma_unmap_single -->
swiotlb_tbl_unmap_single will unmap the passed "size" anyway even when the
"size" is incorrect.

If the size is larger than it should, the extra entries in io_tlb_orig_addr array
will be refilled by INVALID_PHYS_ADDR, and it will cause the bounce buffer copy
not happen when the one who really used the mis-freed entries doing DMA data
transfers, and this will cause further unknow behaviors.

Here we just fix it temporarily by adding a judge of the "size" in the
swiotlb_tbl_unmap_single, if it is larger than it deserves, just unmap the right
size only. Like the code:

Did the DMA debug API (CONFIG_DMA_API_DEBUG) help in figuring this issue as
well?


I have just enabled this config and move off the kernel fix and test, there seems the debug API
has no output for this size incorrect issue. For I only enable the config and no other operations
and my kernel is 4.9, do I missed something?

I confirm that the debug API is working, for there are other drivers triggered its warning output
like:
caam_jr 1710000.jr: DMA-API: device driver tries to free DMA memory it has not allocated
[device address=0x6800458400000000]

By default, dma-debug will only log the first error it sees - you can adjust this with the "num_errors" or "all_errors" sysfs controls, and use the driver filter to hide errors from other drivers if necessary.

Robin.

Although pass a right size of DMA buffer is the responsibility of the drivers, but
Is it useful to add some size check code to prevent real damage happen?

Eric
