[PATCH] dma-debug: Improve search for partial syncs

From: Robin Murphy
Date: Mon Aug 15 2022 - 17:44:48 EST


When bucket_find_contains() tries to find the original entry for a
partial sync, it manages to constrain its search in a way that is both
too restrictive and not restrictive enough. A driver which only uses
single mappings rather than scatterlists might not set max_seg_size, but
could still technically perform a partial sync at an offset of more than
64KB into a sufficiently large mapping, so we could stop searching too
early before reaching a legitimate entry. Conversely, if no valid entry
is present and max_range is large enough, we can pointlessly search
buckets that we've already searched, or that represent an impossible
wrapping around the bottom of the address space. At worst, the
(legitimate) case of max_seg_size == UINT_MAX can make the loop
infinite.

Replace the fragile and frankly hard-to-follow "range" logic with a
simple counted loop for the number of possible hash buckets below the
given address.

Having come back and looked at this for long enough to realise that
max_range itself was both wrong and not actually useful, I figured it
was easiest just to write the whole thing up as an alternative patch.
