Subject: [PATCH 0/2] amba/platform: Initialize dma_parms at the bus
level

It's currently the amba/platform driver's responsibility to initialize
the pointer, dma_parms, for its corresponding struct device. The
benefit with this approach allows us to avoid the initialization and
to not waste memory for the struct device_dma_parameters, as this can
be decided on a case by case basis.

However, it has turned out that this approach is not very practical.
Not only does it lead to open coding, but also to real errors. In
principle callers of
dma_set_max_seg_size() doesn't check the error code, but just assumes
it succeeds.

For these reasons, this series initializes the dma_parms from the
amba/platform bus at the device registration point. This also follows
the way the PCI devices are being managed, see pci_device_add().

If it turns out that this is an acceptable solution, we probably also
want the changes for stable, but I am not sure if it applies without conflicts.

The series is based on v5.6-rc7.


Hi Ulf,

Since i.MXQM SMMU related code still not upstream yet, so I apply your
patches on our internal Linux branch based on v5.4.24, and find it do not work
on my side. Maybe for platform core drivers, there is a gap between v5.4.24
and v5.6-rc7 which has the impact.
I will try to put our SMMU related code into v5.6-rc7, then do the test again.



Hi Ulf,

On the latest Linux-next branch, the top commit 89295c59c1f063b533d071ca49d0fa0c0783ca6f (tag: next-20200326), after add your two patches, I just add the simple debug code as following in the /driver/mmc/core/queue.c, but seems still not work as our expect, logically, it should work, so can you or anyone test on other platform? This seems weird.

You are right, this doesn't work for platform devices being added
through the OF path.

In other words, of_platform_device_create_pdata() manually allocates
the platform device and assigns it the &platform_bus_type, but without
calling platform_device_add().

For amba, it works fine, as in that OF path, amba_device_add() is called. Hmm.

I re-spin this, to address the problem. Perhaps we simply need to use
the ->probe() path.

FWIW we already have setup_pdev_dma_masks(), so it might be logical to include dma_parms in there too.

Robin.


Kind regards
Uffe
