+title: Amlogic general DMA controller
+
+description:
+  This is a general-purpose peripheral DMA controller. It currently supports
+  major peripherals including I2C, I3C, PIO, and CAN-BUS. Transmit and receive
+  for the same peripheral use two separate channels, controlled by different
+  register sets. I2C and I3C transfer data in 1-byte units, while PIO and
+  CAN-BUS transfer data in 4-byte units. From the controller’s perspective,
+  there is no significant difference.

From: Xianwei Zhao <xianwei.zhao@amlogic.com>

Amlogic A9 SoCs include a general-purpose DMA controller that can be used
by multiple peripherals, such as I2C PIO and I3C. Each peripheral group
is associated with a dedicated DMA channel in hardware.

Thank you for your contribution! Sashiko AI review found 2 potential issue(s) to consider:
- [Low] The macros DMA_TX and DMA_RX are defined in a global header without any vendor or subsystem prefix.
- [Low] The binding specifies `#dma-cells: const: 2` but fails to document the semantics of the two cells.

Author: Xianwei Zhao <xianwei.zhao@amlogic.com>

dt-bindings: dma: Add Amlogic A9 SoC DMA

This commit adds device tree binding documentation for the Amlogic A9 SoC
general-purpose DMA controller. It also introduces a new dt-bindings header
file with property values for the DMA transfer directions.

[Severity: Low]
Should this include a description explaining what the two cells represent?

Usually bindings with multiple cells document the semantics of each cell
(e.g., first cell for the request line, second for transfer direction) so
clients know how to construct their dmas specifier.

[Severity: Low]
Would it be safer to add a vendor or device prefix to these macros?

Since this header is globally accessible and can be included in both device
tree sources and driver code, generic names like DMA_TX and DMA_RX might
cause macro redefinition conflicts with other kernel components. Adding a
prefix like AMLOGIC_A9_ would avoid this.

Thank you for your contribution! Sashiko AI review found 17 potential issue(s) to consider:
- [Critical] The naive ring buffer allocator overflows on large scatterlists and silently overwrites active in-flight DMA descriptors.
- [High] The DMA engine device is unregistered twice on driver removal and probe error paths.
- [High] The DMA controller is exposed to clients before hardware and interrupts are fully initialized.
- [High] Integer truncation in the calculation of the allocation length for `aml_dma_dev` leads to a heap buffer overflow.
- [High] The driver allocates memory with `GFP_KERNEL` inside a DMA preparation callback, which can sleep in atomic context.
- [High] The driver unconditionally dereferences `cur_desc` in the interrupt handler and `terminate_all`, leading to a kernel panic if the channel is idle.
- [High] A single DMA transfer error permanently deadlocks the channel.
- [High] Calling `aml_dma_prep_slave_sg` with an empty scatterlist results in a buffer underflow write.
- [High] Mismatch between allocated links and written links for zero-length scatterlist elements.
- [High] Missing `tasklet_kill()` during driver removal leads to Use-After-Free.
- [High] For WCH (DEV_TO_MEM) channels, the hardware is never unpaused after `terminate_all()` or `pause()`.
- [High] The 64-bit physical address of the DMA descriptor list is truncated to 32 bits, causing DMA faults.
- [Medium] Incorrect and non-compliant descriptor residue calculation in `aml_dma_tx_status`.
- [Medium] Signed integer overflow due to 32-bit shift in the interrupt handler.
- [Medium] Concurrent modification of `aml_chan->status` without locking causes state corruption.
- [Medium] The shared interrupt handler unconditionally returns `IRQ_HANDLED` even when it processes no events.
- [Medium] Hardware descriptor fields use native endianness and unaligned 64-bit access.

commit 6328a62df7a031573dae5a113f1f4a5b08fd7d50
Author: Xianwei Zhao <xianwei.zhao@amlogic.com>
Subject: dmaengine: amlogic: Add general DMA driver for A9

This patch adds a new DMA engine driver for the Amlogic A9 general-purpose
DMA controller. It handles transfer operations using the virt-dma framework
and registers the controller using the dmaengine API.

[Severity: Medium]
Will this __packed structure cause alignment faults on architectures sensitive
to unaligned memory accesses? The 64-bit address field is forced to an
unaligned 4-byte offset. Are the native types (u32, u64) safe here, or could
they break DMA execution on big-endian kernels?

[Severity: Medium]
Does this incorrectly accumulate the data_len of independent descriptors?
Furthermore, since list_for_each_entry() overwrites the loop cursor 'vd', could
this traverse the entire desc_issued list without breaking if the target
cookie resides in desc_submitted, thereby returning an incorrect total?

[Severity: Critical]
Is it possible for 'num' to be larger than DMA_MAX_LINK (256)? If a scatterlist
needs more than 256 links, could idx_next become out of bounds and cause the
descriptor preparation loop to write past the end of the sg_link array? Could
this also silently overwrite active in-flight descriptors without checking if
they are currently being processed?

[Severity: High]
Can this allocation sleep in atomic context? Dmaengine prep callbacks are
expected to be callable from atomic contexts (e.g. inside interrupt handlers or
while holding spinlocks). Should GFP_NOWAIT or GFP_ATOMIC be used instead?

[Severity: High]
If a scatterlist element has a length of 0, sg_nents_for_dma() will not allocate
a link slot for it. Will this loop unconditionally increment sg_link++ for that
element anyway, causing the driver to consume more link slots than allocated and
corrupt the ring buffer?

[Severity: High]
If aml_dma_prep_slave_sg() is called with sg_len == 0, the for_each_sg loop
will not execute. Could this cause sg_link-- to point before the allocated
descriptor index, leading to an out-of-bounds underflow write?

[Severity: Medium]
Are these status updates subject to race conditions? aml_chan->status is
modified here without acquiring aml_chan->vchan.lock, while it is also modified
concurrently by the interrupt handler.

[Severity: High]
Does passing a 64-bit dma_addr_t (sg_link_phys) to regmap_write() silently
truncate the upper 32 bits of the address? If memory is allocated above 4GB,
will this lead to incorrect memory accesses by the DMA controller?

[Severity: High]
For WCH (DEV_TO_MEM) channels, aml_dma_start() neglects to write to WCH_CFG.
If aml_dma_terminate_all() or aml_dma_chan_pause() previously set the CFG_PAUSE
bit, will WCH channels remain indefinitely paused?

[Severity: Medium]
Could this shift result in a signed integer overflow? If 'i' reaches 31
(since MAX_CHAN_ID is 32), shifting the signed 32-bit literal '1' causes
undefined behavior. Should this use 1U << i or BIT(i) instead?

[Severity: High]
If a hardware error occurs and aml_chan->status is set to DMA_ERROR, is there
any mechanism to reset the status back to DMA_COMPLETE? Without a reset path,
will aml_dma_start() simply return immediately for all future transfers,
permanently deadlocking the channel?

[Severity: High]
If a spurious interrupt fires, or if it fires concurrently with
aml_dma_terminate_all() (which sets cur_desc to NULL), will aml_desc be NULL
here? This appears to unconditionally dereference aml_desc, potentially causing
a NULL pointer dereference.

[ ... ]
> +	}
> +

[Severity: Medium]
Because this driver requests a shared interrupt line (IRQF_SHARED), shouldn't
the handler return IRQ_NONE if it processed no events (e.g., done and end
were both 0)? Returning IRQ_HANDLED unconditionally could break shared interrupt
semantics and cause issues with the kernel's spurious interrupt detection.

[Severity: High]
Is the calculation of 'len' susceptible to an integer overflow? 'chan_nr' is
read directly from the device tree and isn't bounds-checked before being used
in the calculation of the signed integer 'len'. Could a large 'chan_nr' cause
a heap buffer overflow later during initialization?

[Severity: High]
Does exposing the DMA controller to clients before the interrupt is requested
leave a window where a client could queue a transfer and the hardware could
generate an unhandled interrupt? Should the interrupt be initialized before
dmaenginem_async_device_register() and of_dma_controller_register() are called?

[Severity: High]
Because dmaenginem_async_device_register() already registers a devres action
to unregister the device upon failure, does calling dma_async_device_unregister()
here manually result in a double-free or list corruption?

[Severity: High]
Similarly, does calling dma_async_device_unregister() here cause a double-free
since dmaenginem_async_device_register() was used?

[Severity: High]
Is a call to tasklet_kill() needed here during removal? Since the virt-dma
framework schedules tasklets for DMA completions, failing to kill them could
lead to a use-after-free if a tasklet executes after the driver has been unloaded.
