When a PCI P2PDMA page is seen, set the IOVA length of the segment
to zero so that it is not mapped into the IOVA. Then, in finalise_sg(),
apply the appropriate bus address to the segment. The IOVA is not
created if the scatterlist only consists of P2PDMA pages.

A P2PDMA page may have three possible outcomes when being mapped:
   1) If the data path between the two devices doesn't go through
      the root port, then it should be mapped with a PCI bus address
   2) If the data path goes through the host bridge, it should be mapped
      normally with an IOMMU IOVA.
   3) It is not possible for the two devices to communicate and thus
      the mapping operation should fail (and it will return -EREMOTEIO).

Similar to dma-direct, the sg_dma_mark_pci_p2pdma() flag is used to
indicate bus address segments. On unmap, P2PDMA segments are skipped
over when determining the start and end IOVA addresses.

With this change, the flags variable in the dma_map_ops is set to
DMA_F_PCI_P2PDMA_SUPPORTED to indicate support for P2PDMA pages.

Logically, should we not be able to use sg_is_dma_bus_address() here? I
think it should be feasible, and simpler, to prepare the p2p segments
up-front, such that at this point all we need to do is restore the
original length (if even that, see below).

Per my previous email, no, because sg_is_dma_bus_address() is not set
yet and not meant to tell you something about the page. That flag will
be set below by pci_p2pdma_map_bus_segment() and then checkd in
iommu_dma_unmap_sg() to determine if the dma_address in the segment
needs to be unmapped.

I know it's not set yet as-is; I'm suggesting things should be restructured so that it *would be*. In the logical design of this code, the DMA addresses are effectively determined in iommu_dma_map_sg(), and __finalise_sg() merely converts them from a relative to an absolute form (along with undoing the other trickery). Thus the call to pci_p2pdma_map_bus_segment() absolutely belongs in the main iommu_map_sg() loop.

There's a definite code smell here, but per above and below I think we
*should* actually call the new helper instead of copy-pasting half of it.

If that is required behaviour then it needs an explicit check in
iommu_map_sg() to guarantee (and document) it. It's only by chance that
__iommu_map() happens to return success for size == 0 *if* all the other
arguments still line up, which is a far cry from a safe no-op.

What should such a check look like? I could certainly add some comments
to iommu_map_sg(), but I don't see what the code would need to check for...

I'd say a check for zero-length segments would look like "if (sg->length == 0)", most likely with a "continue;" on the following line.

However, rather than play yet more silly tricks, I think it would make
even more sense to make iommu_map_sg() properly aware and able to skip
direct p2p segments on its own. Once it becomes normal to pass mixed
scatterlists around, it's only a matter of time until one ends up being
handed to a driver which manages its own IOMMU domain, and then what?

I suppose we can add another call to is_pci_p2pdma_page() inside
iommu_map_sg() if you think that is cleaner. Seems like more work on the
fast path to me, but I'm not opposed to it.

I was thinking more of sg_is_dma_bus_address() but admittedly under my initial misapprehension of that. I suppose there's still a tenuous argument that even though we're not actually consuming sg_dma_address() at that point, if a segment *has* been earmarked for direct p2p, then skipping it rather than mapping it at the root complex TA that's probably never going to see those transactions might seem the more logical choice.

However it's all a bit hypothetical, and not significantly cleaner than a zero-size special case, so I'm not particularly tied to the idea either.

[ This comment rather stops being true :( ]

Not exactly. Sure there are some segments in the SGL that have bus
addresses, but all the regular IOVAs still have a single contiguous
allocation and only require one call to __iommu_dma_unmap(). The only
trick issues is finding the first and last actual IOVA SG to get the range.

"The scatterlist segments" means all of them, including any p2p ones which are demonstrably not mapped into anything. The extra logic required to skip non-mapped p2p segments goes beyond "incredibly easy". If there's one thing I *do* definitely understand, it's my own comments ;)

Thanks,
Robin.

...then generalise the first-element special case here into a dedicated

Ok, I'll see what I can do for that.
