Some Qualcomm SoCs, such as Shikra, run the modem in a separate security domain with restricted access to system memory. BAM-DMUX DMA mappings and BAM descriptor FIFOs must therefore be constrained to a designated memory region that can be shared with the modem. Accesses outside that region can trigger an XPU violation. Add memory-region and qcom,vmid properties to the BAM-DMUX binding. When qcom,vmid is present, the driver SCM-assigns the entire restricted DMA pool to the local and remote execution environments before requesting the DMA channels. The restricted pool then contains the BAM-DMUX mappings. When the BAM DMA controller references the same pool, its descriptor FIFOs are covered by the assignment as well. A related binding change allows the BAM DMA controller to use the same restricted pool for descriptor FIFO allocations: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20260920-qcom-bam-dma-vmid-ext-v2-1-4dbbff0e57c8@oss.qualcomm.com/ (local) ("dt-bindings: dma: qcom,bam-dma: Allow memory-region property") Signed-off-by: Vishnu Santhosh <redacted> --- Changes in v2: - Replace the Shikra-specific compatible and coherent RX allocation with memory-region and qcom,vmid properties. - Use a restricted DMA pool for BAM-DMUX mappings and BAM descriptor FIFOs. - SCM-assign the complete pool before requesting the DMA channels. - Validate the remote VMID and restricted DMA pool configuration. - Link to v1: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20260714-qcom-bam-dmux-vmid-ext-v1-0-3f29da7cca76@oss.qualcomm.com (local) --- Vishnu Santhosh (2): dt-bindings: net: qcom,bam-dmux: Add memory-region and qcom,vmid properties net: wwan: qcom_bam_dmux: Assign restricted DMA pool to remote processor .../devicetree/bindings/net/qcom,bam-dmux.yaml | 38 +++++++++ drivers/net/wwan/Kconfig | 1 + drivers/net/wwan/qcom_bam_dmux.c | 95 ++++++++++++++++++++++ 3 files changed, 134 insertions(+) --- base-commit: 8830e65ed46de41f849eefb8ba227d4852c460f6 change-id: 20260714-qcom-bam-dmux-vmid-ext-d9289db310c1 Best regards, -- Vishnu Santhosh [off-list ref]
