dma_mask limited to 32-bits with OF platform device

[Roger Quadros]

Hi,

I'd like to understand why of_dma_configure() is limiting the dma and coherent masks
instead of overriding them.

see commits
a5516219b102 ("of/platform: Initialise default DMA masks")
ee7b1f31200d ("of: fix DMA mask generation")

In of_platform_device_create_pdata(), we initialize both masks to 32-bits unconditionally,
which is fine to support legacy cases.

	dev->dev.coherent_dma_mask = DMA_BIT_MASK(32);
        if (!dev->dev.dma_mask)
                dev->dev.dma_mask = &dev->dev.coherent_dma_mask;

Then in of_dma_configure() we limit it like so.

        dev->coherent_dma_mask &= mask;
        *dev->dma_mask &= mask;

This way, legitimate devices which correctly set dma-ranges in DT
will never get a dma_mask above 32-bits at all. How is this expected to work?

For a test, I added this in dra7.dtsi sata node. (NOTE: CONFIG_ARM_LPAE=y)

And I see.

Truncation of dma_mask and coherent_mask is undesired in this case.

How about fixing it like so?

- 	dev->coherent_dma_mask &= mask;
-	*dev->dma_mask &= mask;
+ 	dev->coherent_dma_mask = mask;
+ 	*dev->dma_mask = mask;

Also this comment doesn't make sense anymore?

        /*
         * Limit coherent and dma mask based on size and default mask
         * set by the driver.
         */
