[PATCH 0/3] dmaengine: Add batched scatter-gather DMA support

[PATCH 0/3] dmaengine: Add batched scatter-gather DMA support

[Sumit Kumar]

Synopsys DesignWare eDMA IP supports a linked-list (LL) mode where
each LL item carries independent source and destination addresses. This
allows multiple independent memory transfers to be described in a single
linked list and submitted to the hardware as one DMA transaction, without
any CPU intervention between items. The IP processes LL items strictly
in order, guaranteeing that scatter-gather entries are never reordered.

This series leverages that hardware capability to introduce a new
dmaengine API — dmaengine_prep_batch_sg_dma() — for batching multiple
independent buffers into a single DMA transaction. Each scatter-gather
entry specifies both its own source (dma_address) and destination
(dma_dst_address), enabling the eDMA hardware to process them as a
single linked-list transaction.

The primary use case is MHI endpoint ring caching. When an MHI ring
wraps around, data spans two non-contiguous memory regions (tail and
head portions). Previously this required two separate DMA transactions
with two interrupts. With this series, both regions are submitted as a
single batched transaction, reducing submission overhead and interrupt
count.

The series includes:
1. Core DMA engine API and DW eDMA driver implementation
2. PCI EPF MHI driver support for batched transfers
3. MHI endpoint ring caching optimization using batched reads

Performance Benefits:
--------------------
- Reduced DMA submission overhead for multiple transfers
- Better hardware utilization through batched operations
- Lower latency for ring wraparound scenarios

[PATCH 1/3] dmaengine: Add multi-buffer support in single DMA transfer

[Sumit Kumar]

Add dmaengine_prep_batch_sg API for batching multiple independent buffers
in a single DMA transaction. Each scatter-gather entry specifies both
source and destination addresses. This allows multiple non-contiguous
memory regions to be transferred in a single DMA transaction instead of
separate operations, significantly reducing submission overhead and
interrupt overhead.

Extends struct scatterlist with optional dma_dst_address field
and implements support in dw-edma driver.

Eww, no, what does this even mean? Is the regular dma_addr somehow 
implicitly a "source" now? How could the single piece of memory 
represented by page_link/offset/length have two different DMA addresses? 
How are both the DMA mapping code and users supposed to know which one 
is relevant in any particular situation?

If you want to bring back DMA_MEMCPY_SG yet again, and you have an 
actual user this time, then do that (although by now it most likely 
wants to be a dma_vec version). Don't do whatever this is...

If you want to batch multiple 
dmaengine_slave_config()/dma_prep_slave_single() operations into some 
many-to-many variant of dmaengine_prep_peripheral_dma_vec(), then surely 
that requires actual batching of the config part as well - e.g. passing 
an explicit vector of distinct dma_slave_configs corresponding to each 
individual dma_vec - in order to be able to work correctly in general?

Thanks,
Robin.

This make me think of Frank's series which tries to create an API which
combines dmaengine_slave_config() with dmaengine_prep_slave_single():

https://lore.kernel.org/dmaengine/20251218-dma_prep_config-v2-0-c07079836128@nxp.com/

Not exactly the same, but might still be of interest.

If this is memcpy why are you talking about dma_dst_address which is a
slave field?

I was not aware about this commit, I will bring back this change (only 
the core dma part).
Along with my changes was are integrated with the above commit.

As we are going back with the commit c678fa66341c we can ignore the 
current patch.

[PATCH 2/3] PCI: epf-mhi: Add batched DMA read support

[Sumit Kumar]

Add support for batched DMA transfers in the PCI EPF MHI driver to
improve performance when reading multiple buffers from the host.

Implement two variants of the read_batch() callback:
- pci_epf_mhi_edma_read_batch(): DMA-optimized implementation using
  dmaengine_prep_batch_sg_dma() to transfer multiple buffers in a single
  DMA transaction.
- pci_epf_mhi_iatu_read_batch(): CPU-copy fallback that sequentially
  processes buffers using IATU.

This enables the MHI endpoint stack to efficiently cache ring data,
particularly for wraparound scenarios where ring data spans two
non-contiguous memory regions.

[PATCH 3/3] bus: mhi: ep: Use batched read for ring caching

[Sumit Kumar]

Simplify ring caching logic by using the new read_batch() callback
for all ring read operations, replacing the previous approach that
used separate read_sync() calls.
