I took a look at the arch/parisc/kernel/pci-dma.c and I see that
is mostly a flat platform. That is bus addresses == physical addresses.
Unless it is an pclx or pclx2 CPU type (huh?) - if its it that
then any calls to dma_alloc_coherent will map memory out of a pool.
In essence it will look like a SWIOTLB bounce buffer.

But interestingly enough there is a lot of 'flush_kernel_dcache_range'
call for every DMA operation. And I think the you need to do
dma_sync_for_cpu call in the radeon_test_writeback for it to
use the flush_kernel_dcache_range. I don't know what the
flush_kernel_dcache_range does thought so I could be wrong.

That means you can ignore the little code below I wrote and
see about doing something like this:


diff --git a/drivers/gpu/drm/radeon/radeon_cp.c b/drivers/gpu/drm/radeon/radeon_cp.c
index 3cae2bb..9e5923d 100644
--- a/drivers/gpu/drm/radeon/radeon_cp.c

+	flush_kernel_dcache_range(dev_priv->ring_rptr, PAGE_SIZE);
 	for (tmp = 0; tmp < dev_priv->usec_timeout; tmp++) {
 		u32 val;

But that is probably a shot in the dark. I have no clue what the flush_..
is doing.

[edit: And then I noticed sba_iommu.c, which is a complete IOMMU driver
where bus and physical addresses are different. sigh. What type of machine
is this? Does it have the IOMMU in it?]

You are missing a translation here (you were comparing the virtual address
to the bus address). I was thinking something along this:

		unsigned int pfn = page_to_pfn(ttm->pages[i]);
		dma_addr_t bus =  gtt->ttm.dma_address[i];
		void *va_bus, *va, *va_pfn;

		if ((pfn << PAGE_SHIFT) != bus)
			printk("Bus 0x%lx != PFN 0x%lx, bus, pfn << PAGE_SHIFT); /* OK, that means
			bus addresses are different */

		va_bus = bus_to_virt(gtt->ttm.dma_address[i]);
		va_pfn = __va(pfn << PAGE_SHIFT);

		if (!virt_addr_valid(va_bus))
			printk("va_bus (0x%lx) not good!\n", va_bus);
		if (!virt_addr_valid(va_pfn))
			printk("va_pfn (0x%lx) not good!\n", va_pfn);
			
		/* We got VA for both bus -> va, and pfn -> va. Should be the
		   same if bus and physical addresses are on the same namespace. */
		if (va_bus != va_pfn)
			printk("va bus:%lx != va pfn: %lx\n", va_bus, va_pfn);

		/* Now that we have bus -> pa -> va (va_bus) try to go va_bus -> bus address.
		   The bus address should be the same */
		if (gtt->tmm.dma_address[i] != virt_to_bus(va_bus))
			printk("bus->pa->va:%lx != bus->pa->va->ba: %lx\n", gtt->tmm.dma_address[i],virt_to_bus(va_bus));

That is odd. I would have thought it would be usuable.

In theory that means the bus address that is programmed in (gtt->dma_address[i])
is 0000000040280000 (which is what virt_to_bus(va) should have resolved itself to).


Tha you can't get access to 'va' (0000000080280000) is odd. One way to try to
access it is to do:

	va = __va(page_to_pfn(ttm->pages[i]) << PAGE_SHIFT);
	DRM_INFO("CONTENTS: %x\n", *((uint32_t)va));

As that would get it via the page -> va.
