[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index] [Xen-devel] [PATCH] TTM DMA pool v2.2 or [GIT PULL] (stable/ttm.dma_pool.v2.3) for 3.3
I am not sure what the right way to patches in Dave tree is for Linux 3.3, so I am posting the patches and also providing the means of doing a git pull. The git tree is: git pull git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/konrad/xen.git stable/ttm.dma_pool.v2.3 Oh, and Thomas, should I add your Ack on the patches as well? I think it was an implied Ack, but I do not want to presume. If so, I can respin this with your Ack shortly. and it has since v2.1: https://lwn.net/Articles/463815/ - Fixed bugs/mistakes pointed out by Jerome - Added Review-by: Jereme Glisse Since v2.0: [not posted] - Redid the registration/override to be tightly integrated with the 'struct ttm_backend_func' per Thomas's suggestion. Since v1.9: [not posted] - Performance improvements - it was doing O(n^2) instead of O(n) on certain workloads. Since v1.8: [lwn.net/Articles/458724/] - Removed swiotlb_enabled and used swiotlb_nr_tbl. - Added callback for changing cache types. Since v1.7: [https://lkml.org/lkml/2011/8/30/460] - Fixed checking the DMA address in radeon/nouveau code. Since v1: [http://lwn.net/Articles/456246/] - Ran it through the gauntlet of SubmitChecklist and fixed issues - Made radeon/nouveau driver set coherent_dma (which is required for dmapool) [.. and this is what I said in v1 post]: Way back in January this patchset: http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/dri-devel/2011-January/006905.html was merged in, but pieces of it had to be reverted b/c they did not work properly under PowerPC, ARM, and when swapping out pages to disk. After a bit of discussion on the mailing list http://marc.info/?i=4D769726.2030307@xxxxxxxxxxxx I started working on it, but got waylaid by other things .. and finally I am able to post the RFC patches. There was a lot of discussion about it and I am not sure if I captured everybody's thoughts - if I did not - that is _not_ intentional - it has just been quite some time.. Anyhow .. the patches explore what the "lib/dmapool.c" does - which is to have a DMA pool that the device has associated with. I kind of married that code along with drivers/gpu/drm/ttm/ttm_page_alloc.c to create a TTM DMA pool code. The end result is DMA pool with extra features: can do write-combine, uncached, writeback (and tracks them and sets back to WB when freed); tracks "cached" pages that don't really need to be returned to a pool; and hooks up to the shrinker code so that the pools can be shrunk. If you guys think this set of patches make sense - my future plans were 1) Get this in large crowd of testing .. and if it works for a kernel release 2) to move a bulk of this in the lib/dmapool.c (I spoke with Matthew Wilcox about it and he is OK as long as I don't introduce performance regressions). In regards to testing, I've been running them non-stop for the last two months. (and found some issues which I've fixed up) - and been quite happy with how they work. Michel (thanks!) took a spin of the patches on his PowerPC and they did not cause any regressions (wheew). The patches are also located in a git tree: git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/konrad/xen.git stable/ttm.dma_pool.v2.3 Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk (11): swiotlb: Expose swiotlb_nr_tlb function to modules nouveau/radeon: Set coherent DMA mask ttm/radeon/nouveau: Check the DMA address from TTM against known value. ttm: Wrap ttm_[put|get]_pages and extract GFP_* and caching states from 'struct ttm_tt' ttm: Get rid of temporary scaffolding ttm/driver: Expand ttm_backend_func to include two overrides for TTM page pool. ttm: Do not set the ttm->be to NULL before calling the TTM page pool to free pages. ttm: Provide DMA aware TTM page pool code. ttm: Add 'no_dma' parameter to turn the TTM DMA pool off during runtime. nouveau/ttm/dma: Enable the TTM DMA pool if device can only do 32-bit DMA. radeon/ttm/dma: Enable the TTM DMA pool if the device can only do 32-bit. drivers/gpu/drm/nouveau/nouveau_debugfs.c | 1 + drivers/gpu/drm/nouveau/nouveau_mem.c | 5 + drivers/gpu/drm/nouveau/nouveau_sgdma.c | 8 +- drivers/gpu/drm/radeon/radeon_device.c | 6 + drivers/gpu/drm/radeon/radeon_gart.c | 4 +- drivers/gpu/drm/radeon/radeon_ttm.c | 19 +- drivers/gpu/drm/ttm/Makefile | 3 + drivers/gpu/drm/ttm/ttm_memory.c | 5 + drivers/gpu/drm/ttm/ttm_page_alloc.c | 108 ++- drivers/gpu/drm/ttm/ttm_page_alloc_dma.c | 1409 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ drivers/gpu/drm/ttm/ttm_tt.c | 21 +- drivers/xen/swiotlb-xen.c | 2 +- include/drm/ttm/ttm_bo_driver.h | 31 + include/drm/ttm/ttm_page_alloc.h | 53 +- include/linux/swiotlb.h | 2 +- lib/swiotlb.c | 5 +- 16 files changed, 1600 insertions(+), 82 deletions(-) _______________________________________________ Xen-devel mailing list Xen-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.xensource.com/xen-devel
