Subject: [PATCH/RFC 3/7] MIPS: mm: handle highmem pages in arch_dma_prep_coherent()
Date: Fri, 6 Nov 2026 23:56:23 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261106225628.215319-4-m.szyprowski@samsung.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20261106225628.215319-1-m.szyprowski@samsung.com>
arch_dma_prep_coherent() performs the cache maintenance on the address
returned by page_address(). On 32-bit MIPS with CONFIG_HIGHMEM the kernel
uses HASHED_PAGE_VIRTUAL, so page_address() returns NULL for a highmem
page that is not kmapped, and dma_cache_wback_inv() then operates on
the virtual range starting at 0 instead of the buffer, leaving any dirty
cache lines of the buffer in place.
Highmem pages do reach this function: dma_alloc_contiguous() can return
a highmem CMA page, which dma_direct_alloc() handles by forcing the remap
path and calling arch_dma_prep_coherent() on that page before creating
the uncached mapping. Since commit f5ff79fddf0e ("dma-mapping: remove
CONFIG_DMA_REMAP") this path is available on all MMU architectures,
including MIPS, which previously rejected highmem CMA pages.
Fix this by reusing dma_sync_phys(), which already handles highmem pages
by mapping them one page at a time with kmap_atomic(). For lowmem pages
it does a single dma_cache_wback_inv() over the whole range, so the
behaviour is unchanged there.
Fixes: f5ff79fddf0e ("dma-mapping: remove CONFIG_DMA_REMAP")
