Lyude Paul acd674af95 drm/i915: Call dma_set_max_seg_size() in i915_driver_hw_probe() ... Currently, we don't call dma_set_max_seg_size() for i915 because we intentionally do not limit the segment length that the device supports. However, this results in a warning being emitted if we try to map anything larger than SZ_64K on a kernel with CONFIG_DMA_API_DEBUG_SG enabled: [ 7.751926] DMA-API: i915 0000:00:02.0: mapping sg segment longer than device claims to support [len=98304] [max=65536] [ 7.751934] WARNING: CPU: 5 PID: 474 at kernel/dma/debug.c:1220 debug_dma_map_sg+0x20f/0x340 This was originally brought up on https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=108517 , and the consensus there was it wasn't really useful to set a limit (and that dma-debug isn't really all that useful for i915 in the first place). Unfortunately though, CONFIG_DMA_API_DEBUG_SG is enabled in the debug configs for various distro kernels. Since a WARN_ON() will disable automatic problem reporting (and cause any CI with said option enabled to start complaining), we really should just fix the problem. Note that as me and Chris Wilson discussed, the other solution for this would be to make DMA-API not make such assumptions when a driver hasn't explicitly set a maximum segment size. But, taking a look at the commit which originally introduced this behavior, commit 78c47830a5 ("dma-debug: check scatterlist segments"), there is an explicit mention of this assumption and how it applies to devices with no segment size: Conversely, devices which are less limited than the rather conservative defaults, or indeed have no limitations at all (e.g. GPUs with their own internal MMU), should be encouraged to set appropriate dma_parms, as they may get more efficient DMA mapping performance out of it. So unless there's any concerns (I'm open to discussion!), let's just follow suite and call dma_set_max_seg_size() with UINT_MAX as our limit to silence any warnings. Changes since v3: * Drop patch for enabling CONFIG_DMA_API_DEBUG_SG in CI. It looks like just turning it on causes the kernel to spit out bogus WARN_ONs() during some igt tests which would otherwise require teaching igt to disable the various DMA-API debugging options causing this. This is too much work to be worth it, since DMA-API debugging is useless for us. So, we'll just settle with this single patch to squelch WARN_ONs() during driver load for users that have CONFIG_DMA_API_DEBUG_SG turned on for some reason. * Move dma_set_max_seg_size() call into i915_driver_hw_probe() - Chris Wilson Signed-off-by: Lyude Paul <lyude@redhat.com> Reviewed-by: Chris Wilson <chris@chris-wilson.co.uk> Cc: <stable@vger.kernel.org> # v4.18+ Link: https://patchwork.freedesktop.org/patch/msgid/20190823205251.14298-1-lyude@redhat.com		2019-08-26 11:24:45 -04:00
