If the card is PCI/PCI-X/PCIe then coherency is not its business, it's
the business of the host bridge. However, on PCIe at least, the card can
indeed set a "no snoop" attribute on DMA transactions to request "no
coherency". At least the systems have the latitude to just ignore that
bit (like we do on all ppc afaik) :-)

Right, it's not a GPU thing, it's really a system design thing.
Cheers,
