Jake Moilanen 569975591c [POWERPC] DMA 4GB boundary protection
There are many adapters which cannot handle DMAing across any 4 GB
boundary.  For instance, the latest Emulex adapters.

This normally is not an issue as firmware gives dma-windows under
4gigs.  However, some of the new System-P boxes have dma-windows above
4gigs, and this present a problem.

During initialization of the IOMMU tables, the last entry at each 4GB
boundary is marked as used.  Thus no mappings can cross the boundary.
If a table ends at a 4GB boundary, the entry is not marked as used.

A boot option to remove this 4GB protection is given w/ protect4gb=off.
This exposes the potential issue for driver and hardware development
purposes.

Jake Moilanen 618d3adc35 [POWERPC] DMA 4GB boundary protection
There are many adapters which can not handle DMAing acrosss any 4 GB

This normally is not an issue as firmware gives us dma-windows under
4gigs.  However, some of the new System-P boxes have dma-windows above
4gigs, and this present a problem.

I propose fixing it in the IOMMU allocation instead of making each
driver protect against it as it is more efficient, and won't require
changing every driver which has not considered this issue.

This patch checks to see if the mapping spans a 4 gig boundary, and if
it does, retries the allocation.  It tries the next allocation at the
start of the crossed 4 gig boundary.

Benjamin Herrenschmidt 12d04eef92 [POWERPC] Refactor 64 bits DMA operations
This patch completely refactors DMA operations for 64 bits powerpc. 32 bits
is untouched for now.

We use the new dev_archdata structure to add the dma operations pointer
and associated data to struct device. While at it, we also add the OF node
pointer and numa node. In the future, we might want to look into merging
that with pci_dn as well.

The old vio, pci-iommu and pci-direct DMA ops are gone. They are now replaced
by a set of generic iommu and direct DMA ops (non PCI specific) that can be
used by bus types. The toplevel implementation is now inline.

Linas Vepstas 5d2efba64b [POWERPC] Use 4kB iommu pages even on 64kB-page systems
The 10Gigabit ethernet device drivers appear to be able to chew
up all 256MB of TCE mappings on pSeries systems, as evidenced by
numerous error messages:

 iommu_alloc failed, tbl c0000000010d5c48 vaddr c0000000d875eff0 npages 1

Some experimentation indicates that this is essentially because
one 1500 byte ethernet MTU gets mapped as a 64K DMA region when
the large 64K pages are enabled. Thus, it doesn't take much to
exhaust all of the available DMA mappings for a high-speed card.

This patch changes the iommu allocator to work with its own
unique, distinct page size. Although the patch is long, its
actually quite simple: it just #defines a distinct IOMMU_PAGE_SIZE
and then uses this in all the places that matter.

As a side effect, it also dramatically improves network performance
on platforms with H-calls on iommu translation inserts/removes (since
we no longer call it 16 times for a 1500 bytes packet when the iommu HW
is still 4k).

In the future, we might want to make the IOMMU_PAGE_SIZE a variable
in the iommu_table instance, thus allowing support for different HW
page sizes in the iommu itself.

Haren Myneni 5f50867b4f [POWERPC] kdump: Reserve the existing TCE mappings left by the first kernel
During kdump boot, noticed some machines checkstop on dma protection
fault for ongoing DMA left in the first kernel. Instead of initializing
TCE entries in iommu_init() for the kdump boot, this patch fixes this
issue by walking through the each TCE table and checks whether the
entries are in use by the first kernel. If so, reserve those entries by
setting the corresponding bit in tbl->it_map such that these entries
will not be available for the kdump boot.

However it could be possible that all TCE entries might be used up due
to the driver bug that does continuous mapping. My observation is around
1700 TCE  entries are used on some systems (Ex: P4) at some point of
time during kdump boot and saving dump (either write into the disk or
sending to remote machine). Hence, this patch will make sure that
minimum of 2048 entries will be available such that kdump boot could be
successful in some cases.

Make sure dma_alloc_coherent allocates memory from the local node.  This
is important on Cell where we avoid going through the slow cpu
interconnect.

Note:  I could only test this patch on Cell, it should be verified on
some pseries machine by those that have the hardware.

Jake Moilanen a958a26486 [PATCH] powerpc: IOMMU SG paranoia
This addresses two items, which are unlikely to be hit if we
trust drivers.

The first is moving a memory barrier below where the vmerged SG count
is passed back, but before the list is set to end.  If those
instructions were reordered, there could be an issue in iommu_unmap_sg().

The second is making sure we terminate the list on the failure case of
iommu_map_sg().  If a driver does not look at the failure return code,
it could pass a ill-formed SG list to iommu_unmap_sg().
