RE: [Linaro-mm-sig] [RFC 2/2] ARM: initial proof-of-concept IOMMU mapper for DMA-mapping

Hello,

Add initial proof of concept implementation of DMA-mapping API for
devices that have IOMMU support. Right now only dma_alloc_coherent,
dma_free_coherent and dma_mmap_coherent functions are supported.

dma_addr_t size);

__init causes a panic if the iommu is assigned after boot.

In OMAP3 the iommu driver controls isp and dsp address spaces, it is
loaded until any of those 2 drivers is needed.

Well, ok. This was just a proof-of-concept/rfc patch, so it was designed only
for our particular case.

I found useful to call arm_iommu_init inside arm_iommu_assign_device
instead. So, then gen_pool is created only once without the
mapping->pool check, instead of relying on the call to ...alloc_attrs,
which in my case I never use because I'm implementing
iommu_map|unmap_sg functions to see how it goes with the dma mapping.

Right, this is still on my todo list, but I wanted to focus on cleanup 
of dma mapping framework and cma first.

Best regards
