Subject: [PATCH v3 1/3] usb: core: add dma-noncoherent buffer alloc and free API
Date: Wed, 2 Jul 2025 19:02:20 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250702110222.3926355-2-xu.yang_2@nxp.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20250702110222.3926355-1-xu.yang_2@nxp.com>
This will add usb_alloc_noncoherent() and usb_free_noncoherent()
functions to support alloc and free buffer in a dma-noncoherent way.
To explicit manage the memory ownership for the kernel and device,
this will also add usb_dma_noncoherent_sync_for_cpu/device() functions
and call it at proper time. The management requires the user save
sg_table returned by usb_alloc_noncoherent() to urb->sgt.
Signed-off-by: Xu Yang <xu.yang_2@nxp.com>

Changes in v3:
- put Return section at the end of description
- correct some abbreviations
- remove usb_dma_noncoherent_sync_for_cpu() and
usb_dma_noncoherent_sync_for_device()
- do DMA sync in usb_hcd_map_urb_for_dma() and
usb_hcd_unmap_urb_for_dma()
- call flush_kernel_vmap_range() for OUT transfers
and invalidate_kernel_vmap_range() for IN transfers
