Linux kernel source tree
in case of driver wants to sync part of ranges with offset,
swiotlb_tbl_sync_single() copies from orig_addr base to tlb_addr with
offset and ends up with data mismatch.
It was removed from
"swiotlb: don't modify orig_addr in swiotlb_tbl_sync_single",
but said logic has to be added back in.
From Linus's email:
"That commit which the removed the offset calculation entirely, because the old
(unsigned long)tlb_addr & (IO_TLB_SIZE - 1)
was wrong, but instead of removing it, I think it should have just
fixed it to be
(tlb_addr - mem->start) & (IO_TLB_SIZE - 1);
instead. That way the slot offset always matches the slot index calculation."
(Unfortunatly that broke NVMe).
The use-case that drivers are hitting is as follow:
1. Get dma_addr_t from dma_map_single()
dma_addr_t tlb_addr = dma_map_single(dev, vaddr, vsize, DMA_TO_DEVICE);
|<---------------vsize------------->|
+-----------------------------------+
| | original buffer
+-----------------------------------+
vaddr
swiotlb_align_offset
|<----->|<---------------vsize------------->|
+-------+-----------------------------------+
| | | swiotlb buffer
+-------+-----------------------------------+
tlb_addr
2. Do something
3. Sync dma_addr_t through dma_sync_single_for_device(..)
dma_sync_single_for_device(dev, tlb_addr + offset, size, DMA_TO_DEVICE);
Error case.
Copy data to original buffer but it is from base addr (instead of
base addr + offset) in original buffer:
swiotlb_align_offset
|<----->|<- offset ->|<- size ->|
+-------+-----------------------------------+
| | |##########| | swiotlb buffer
+-------+-----------------------------------+
tlb_addr
|<- size ->|
+-----------------------------------+
|##########| | original buffer
+-----------------------------------+
vaddr
The fix is to copy the data to the original buffer and take into
account the offset, like so:
swiotlb_align_offset
|<----->|<- offset ->|<- size ->|
+-------+-----------------------------------+
| | |##########| | swiotlb buffer
+-------+-----------------------------------+
tlb_addr
|<- offset ->|<- size ->|
+-----------------------------------+
| |##########| | original buffer
+-----------------------------------+
vaddr
[One fix which was Linus's that made more sense to as it created a
symmetry would break NVMe. The reason for that is the:
unsigned int offset = (tlb_addr - mem->start) & (IO_TLB_SIZE - 1);
would come up with the proper offset, but it would lose the
alignment (which this patch contains).]

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
