[PATCH v1] drm/tegra: gem: Fix CPU-cache maintenance for BO's allocated using get_pages()

From: Dmitry Osipenko
Date: Wed Mar 06 2019 - 17:57:08 EST


The allocated pages need to be invalidated in CPU caches. On ARM32 the
DMA_BIDIRECTIONAL flag only ensures that data is written-back to DRAM and
the data stays in CPU cache lines. While the DMA_FROM_DEVICE flag ensures
that the corresponding CPU cache lines are getting invalidated and nothing
more, that's exactly what is needed for a newly allocated pages.

This fixes randomly failing rendercheck tests on Tegra30 using the
Opentegra driver for tests that use small-sized pixmaps (10x10 and less,
i.e. 1-2 memory pages) because apparently CPU reads out stale data from
caches and/or that data is getting evicted to DRAM at the time of HW job
execution.
