They are an +optional path that requires extra code and are only recommended for drivers +where DMA mapping performance, or the space usage for storing the DMA addresses +matter. All the considerations from the previous section apply here as well. + +:: + + bool dma_iova_try_alloc(struct device *dev, struct dma_iova_state *state, + phys_addr_t phys, size_t size); + +Is used to try to allocate IOVA space for mapping operation. If it returns +false this API can't be used for the given device and the normal streaming +DMA mapping API should be used. The ``struct dma_iova_state`` is allocated +by the driver and must be kept around until unmap time. + +:: + + static inline bool dma_use_iova(struct dma_iova_state *state) + +Can be used by the driver to check if the IOVA-based API is used after a +call to dma_iova_try_alloc. This can be useful in the unmap path. + +:: + + int dma_iova_link(struct device *dev, struct dma_iova_state *state, + phys_addr_t phys, size_t offset, size_t size, + enum dma_data_direction dir, unsigned long attrs); + +Is used to link ranges to the IOVA previously allocated. The start of all +but the first call to dma_iova_link for a given state must be aligned +to the DMA merge boundary returned by ``dma_get_merge_boundary())``, and +the size of all but the last range must be aligned to the DMA merge boundary +as well. + +:: + + int dma_iova_sync(struct device *dev, struct dma_iova_state *state, + size_t offset, size_t size); + +Must be called to sync the IOMMU page tables for IOVA-range mapped by one or +more calls to ``dma_iova_link()``. + +For drivers that use a one-shot mapping, all ranges can be unmapped and the +IOVA freed by calling: + +:: + + void dma_iova_destroy(struct device *dev, struct dma_iova_state *state, + size_t mapped_len, enum dma_data_direction dir, + unsigned long attrs); + +Alternatively drivers can dynamically manage the IOVA space by unmapping +and mapping individual regions. In that case + +:: + + void dma_iova_unlink(struct device *dev, struct dma_iova_state *state, + size_t offset, size_t size, enum dma_data_direction dir, + unsigned long attrs); + +is used to unmap a range previously mapped, and + +:: + + void dma_iova_free(struct device *dev, struct dma_iova_state *state); + +is used to free the IOVA space. All regions must have been unmapped using +``dma_iova_unlink()`` before calling ``dma_iova_free()``. Part II - Non-coherent DMA allocations -------------------------------------- -- 2.49.0
