This patchset enhances the DMA Contiguous Memory Allocator on x86. Currently the DMA CMA is only supported with pci-nommu dma_map_ops and furthermore it can't be enabled on x86_64. But I would like to allocate big contiguous memory with dma_alloc_coherent() and tell it to the device that requires it, regardless of which dma mapping implementation is actually used in the system. So this makes it work with swiotlb and intel-iommu dma_map_ops, too. And this also extends "cma=" kernel parameter to specify placement constraint by the physical address range of memory allocations. For example, CMA allocates memory below 4GB by "cma=64M@0-4G", it is required for the devices only supporting 32-bit addressing on 64-bit systems without iommu. This patch (of 5): Calling dma_alloc_coherent() with __GFP_ZERO must return zeroed memory. But when the contiguous memory allocator (CMA) is enabled on x86 and the memory region is allocated by dma_alloc_from_contiguous(), it doesn't return zeroed memory. Because dma_generic_alloc_coherent() forgot to fill the memory region with zero if it was allocated by dma_alloc_from_contiguous() Most implementations of dma_alloc_coherent() return zeroed memory regardless of whether __GFP_ZERO is specified. So this fixes it by unconditionally zeroing the allocated memory region. Alternatively, we could fix dma_alloc_from_contiguous() to return zeroed out memory and remove memset() from all caller of it. But we can't simply remove the memset on arm because __dma_clear_buffer() is used there for ensuring cache flushing and it is used in many places. Of course we can do redundant memset in dma_alloc_from_contiguous(), but I think this patch is less impact for fixing this problem.
