[PATCH 4/4] x86/xen: use the maximum MFN to calculate the required DMA mask

From: David Vrabel
Date: Wed Nov 19 2014 - 11:03:12 EST


On a Xen PV guest the DMA addresses and physical addresses are not 1:1
(such as Xen PV guests) and the generic dma_get_required_mask() does
not return the correct mask (since it uses max_pfn).

Some device drivers (such as mptsas, mpt2sas) use
dma_get_required_mask() to set the device's DMA mask to allow them to
use only 32-bit DMA addresses in hardware structures. This results in
unnecessary use of the SWIOTLB if DMA addresses are more than 32-bits,
impacting performance significantly.

Provide a get_required_mask op that uses the maximum MFN to calculate
the DMA mask.
