[PATCH] Add DMA_ATTR_WEAK_ORDERING dma attribute and use in Cell IOMMU code

Fri Jul 18 23:03:34 EST 2008


Introduce a new dma attriblue DMA_ATTR_WEAK_ORDERING to use weak ordering
on DMA mappings in the Cell processor. Add the code to the Cell's IOMMU
implementation to use this code.

Dynamic mappings can be weakly or strongly ordered on an individual basis
but the fixed mapping has to be either completely strong or completely weak.
This is currently decided by a kernel boot option (pass iommu_fixed=weak
for a weakly ordered fixed linear mapping, strongly ordered is the default).

Ok, this is the previous version of the patch from Mark, which
does exactly that. Please use this one instead.

+----------------------

+DMA_ATTR_WEAK_ORDERING specifies that reads and writes to the mapping
+may be weakly ordered, that is that reads and writes may pass each other.

+Since it is optional for platforms to implement DMA_ATTR_WEAK_ORDERING,
