This patch series adds SMMU support for NXP LS1043A and LS1046A chips
and consists mostly in important driver fixes and the required device
tree updates. It touches several subsystems and consists of three main
parts:
- changes in soc/drivers/fsl/qbman drivers adding iommu mapping of
reserved memory areas, fixes and defered probe support
- changes in drivers/net/ethernet/freescale/dpaa_eth drivers
consisting in misc dma mapping related fixes and probe ordering
- addition of the actual arm smmu device tree node together with
various adjustments to the device trees
Performance impact
Running iperf benchmarks in a back-to-back setup (both sides
having smmu enabled) on a 10GBps port show an important
networking performance degradation of around %40 (9.48Gbps
linerate vs 5.45Gbps). If you need performance but without
SMMU support you can use "iommu.passthrough=1" to disable
SMMU.
USB issue and workaround
There's a problem with the usb controllers in these chips
generating smaller, 40-bit wide dma addresses instead of the 48-bit
supported at the smmu input. So you end up in a situation where the
smmu is mapped with 48-bit address translations, but the device
generates transactions with clipped 40-bit addresses, thus smmu
context faults are triggered. I encountered a similar situation for
mmc that I managed to fix in software [1] however for USB I did not
find a proper place in the code to add a similar fix. The only
workaround I found was to add this kernel parameter which limits the
usb dma to 32-bit size: "xhci-hcd.quirks=0x800000".
This workaround if far from ideal, so any suggestions for a code
based workaround in this area would be greatly appreciated.
The patch set is based on net-next so, if generally agreed, I'd suggest
to get the patches through the netdev tree after getting all the Acks.
