[PATCH kernel v5 3/4] powerpc/powernv/ioda2: Allocate TCE table levels on demand for default DMA window

Thu Jul 18 15:11:38 AEST 2019


We allocate only the first level of multilevel TCE tables for KVM
already (alloc_userspace_copy==true), and the rest is allocated on demand.
This is not enabled though for bare metal.

This removes the KVM limitation (implicit, via the alloc_userspace_copy
parameter) and always allocates just the first level. The on-demand
allocation of missing levels is already implemented.

As from now on DMA map might happen with disabled interrupts, this
allocates TCEs with GFP_ATOMIC; otherwise lockdep reports errors 1].
In practice just a single page is allocated there so chances for failure
are quite low.

To save time when creating a new clean table, this skips non-allocated
indirect TCE entries in pnv_tce_free just like we already do in
the VFIO IOMMU TCE driver.

This changes the default level number from 1 to 2 to reduce the amount
of memory required for the default 32bit DMA window at the boot time.
The default window size is up to 2GB which requires 4MB of TCEs which is
unlikely to be used entirely or at all as most devices these days are
64bit capable so by switching to 2 levels by default we save 4032KB of
RAM per a device.

While at this, add __GFP_NOWARN to alloc_pages_node() as the userspace
can trigger this path via VFIO, see the failure and try creating a table
again with different parameters which might succeed.

but this lock took another, HARDIRQ-unsafe lock in the past:
 (fs_reclaim){+.+.}


and interrupts could create inverse lock ordering between them.
