    swiotlb: add swiotlb_tbl_map_single library function · eb605a57
    FUJITA Tomonori authored
    swiotlb_tbl_map_single() takes the dma address of iotlb instead of
    using swiotlb_virt_to_bus().
    
    [v2: changed swiotlb_tlb to swiotlb_tbl]
    [v3: changed u64 to dma_addr_t]
    
    This patch:
    
    This is a set of patches that separate the address translation
    (virt_to_phys, virt_to_bus, etc) and allocation of the SWIOTLB buffer
    from the SWIOTLB library.
    
    The idea behind this set of patches is to make it possible to have separate
    mechanisms for translating virtual to physical or virtual to DMA addresses
    on platforms which need an SWIOTLB, and where physical != PCI bus address
    and also to allocate the core IOTLB memory outside SWIOTLB.
    
    One customers of this is the pv-ops project, which can switch between
    different modes of operation depending on the environment it is running in:
    bare-metal or virtualized (Xen for now). Another is the Wii DMA - used to
    implement the MEM2 DMA facility needed by its EHCI controller (for details:
    http://lkml.org/lkml/2010/5/18/303)
    
    On bare-metal SWIOTLB is used when there are no hardware IOMMU. In virtualized
    environment it used when PCI pass-through is enabled for the guest. The problems
    with PCI pass-through is that the guest's idea of PFN's is not the real thing.
    To fix that, there is translation layer for PFN->machine frame number and vice-versa.
    To bubble that up to the SWIOTLB layer there are two possible solutions.
    
    One solution has been to wholesale copy the SWIOTLB, stick it in
    arch/x86/xen/swiotlb.c and modify the virt_to_phys, phys_to_virt and others
    to use the Xen address translation functions. Unfortunately, since the kernel can
    run on bare-metal, there would be big code overlap with the real SWIOTLB.
    (git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jeremy/xen.git xen/dom0/swiotlb-new)
    
    Another approach, which this set of patches explores, is to abstract the
    address translation and address determination functions away from the
    SWIOTLB book-keeping functions. This way the core SWIOTLB library functions
    are present in one place, while the address related functions are in
    a separate library that can be loaded when running under non-bare-metal platform.
    
    Changelog:
    Since the last posting [v8.2] Konrad has done:
     - Added this changelog in the patch and referenced in the other patches
       this description.
     - 'enum dma_data_direction direction' to 'enum dma.. dir' so to be
       unified.
    [v8-v8.2 changes:]
     - Rolled-up the last two patches in one.
     - Rebased against linus latest. That meant dealing with swiotlb_sync_single_range_* changes.
     - added Acked-by: Fujita Tomonori and Tested-by: Albert Herranz
    [v7-v8 changes:]
     - Minimized the list of exported functions.
     - Integrated Fujita's patches and changed "swiotlb_tlb" to "swiotlb_tbl" in them.
    [v6-v7 changes:]
     - Minimized the amount of exported functions/variable with a prefix of: "swiotbl_tbl".
     - Made the usage of 'int dir' to be 'enum dma_data_direction'.
    [v5-v6 changes:]
     - Made the exported functions/variables have the 'swiotlb_bk' prefix.
     - dropped the checkpatches/other reworks
