I suspect for imported dma-bufs we should leave the mmap() to the exporter instead of pulling the pages out of the sgt and map them ourself. > btw the issue extends to dma access by devices too, e.g. both i915 and > amdgpu can select the coherency mode at runtime (using e.g. the pcie > no-snoop transaction mode), and we have similar uncoordinated hacks in > there too, like in udl. Hmm. Ok. I guess I'm not going to try solve all that properly just for the little virtio fix. Just curious: How do you tell your hardware? Are there bits for that in the gtt, simliar to the caching bits in the x86 page tables? cheers, Gerd _______________________________________________ dri-devel mailing list dri-devel@lists.freedesktop.org https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/dri-devel
