[etnaviv-next v14 5/8] drm/etnaviv: Add support for cached coherent caching mode

From: Sui Jingfeng
Date: Sun May 19 2024 - 12:55:44 EST


Many modern CPUs and/or platforms choose to define their peripheral devices
as cached coherent by default, to be specific, the PCH is capable of
snooping CPU's cache. When hit the peripheral devices will access data
directly from CPU's cache. This means that device drivers do not need to
maintain the coherency issue between a processor and peripheral I/O for
the cached buffers. Hence, it dosen't need us to sync manually on the
software side, which is useful to avoid some overheads, especially for
userspace, but userspace is not known yet.

Probe the hardware maintained cached coherent support of the host platform
with the dev_is_dma_coherent() function, and store the result in struct
etnaviv_drm_private. As this is a platform implementation-defined hardware
feature and again is meant to be shared by all GPU cores. And expose it
via etnaviv parameter mechanism to let userspace know.

Please note that write-combine mapping out of scope of the discussion
and therefore is not being addressed.
