Could you try the patch below to show maybe some other users of
dma-debug entries?

With the default # entries&  dma_debug_driver=sky2:

6:00 is eth0&  4:00 is eth1.

Jan 30 23:53:14 mail kernel: DMA-API: 0000:06:00.0: entries: 31961
...

         

I put a printk as a third else case in sky2_tx_unmap. Looks like
the issue is that a large number (perhaps all) calls to
sky2_tx_unmap have re->flags set to neither TX_MAP_SINGLE or
TX_MAP_PAGE. Thus the elements are never being unmapped.

I suspect that the system collapses when using DMAR sooner than if
not using DMAR. Probably some hardware limitation on the number of
mapped elements that is less than the software limitation. I don't
see at present how a ring element can ever get to this code
without re->flags being set to one or the other.


       

Put some more debugging code in... re->flags is always NULL upon
entry to sky2_tx_unmap.

     

Yes, good point! Could you try if this patch can fix it. (not compiled)

Thanks,
Jarek P.
