Nowadays, there are increasing requirements to benchmark the performance of dma_map and dma_unmap particually while the device is attached to an IOMMU. This patch enables the support. Users can run specified number of threads to do dma_map_page and dma_unmap_page on a specific NUMA node with the specified duration. Then dma_map_benchmark will calculate the average latency for map and unmap. A difficulity for this benchmark is that dma_map/unmap APIs must run on a particular device. Each device might have different backend of IOMMU or non-IOMMU. So we use the driver_override to bind dma_map_benchmark to a particual device by: For platform devices: echo dma_map_benchmark > /sys/bus/platform/devices/xxx/driver_override echo xxx > /sys/bus/platform/drivers/xxx/unbind echo xxx > /sys/bus/platform/drivers/dma_map_benchmark/bind For PCI devices: echo dma_map_benchmark > /sys/bus/pci/devices/0000:00:01.0/driver_override echo 0000:00:01.0 > /sys/bus/pci/drivers/xxx/unbind echo 0000:00:01.0 > /sys/bus/pci/drivers/dma_map_benchmark/bind Cc: Will Deacon <will@kernel.org> Cc: Shuah Khan <shuah@kernel.org> Cc: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de> Cc: Marek Szyprowski <m.szyprowski@samsung.com> Cc: Robin Murphy <robin.murphy@arm.com> Signed-off-by: Barry Song <song.bao.hua@hisilicon.com> [hch: folded in two fixes from Colin Ian King <colin.king@canonical.com>] Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de> |

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
