In case of ARCv2 CPU there're could be following configurations that affect cache handling for data exchanged with peripherals via DMA: [1] Only L1 cache exists [2] Both L1 and L2 exist, but no IO coherency unit [3] L1, L2 caches and IO coherency unit exist Current implementation takes care of [1] and [2]. Moreover support of [2] is implemented with run-time check for SLC existence which is not super optimal. This patch introduces support of [3] and rework of DMA ops usage. Instead of doing run-time check every time a particular DMA op is executed we'll have 3 different implementations of DMA ops and select appropriate one during init. As for IOC support for it we need: [a] Implement empty DMA ops because IOC takes care of cache coherency with DMAed data [b] Route dma_alloc_coherent() via dma_alloc_noncoherent() This is required to make IOC work in first place and also serves as optimization as LD/ST to coherent buffers can be srviced from caches w/o going all the way to memory Signed-off-by: Alexey Brodkin <abrodkin@synopsys.com> [vgupta: -Added some comments about IOC gains -Marked dma ops as static, -Massaged changelog a bit] Signed-off-by: Vineet Gupta <vgupta@synopsys.com> |
