The Ricoh device issue has been known for some time and a quirk has been
available since commit 12ea6cad1c7d046 in June 2012. It's slightly
different than the problem this patch tries to work around [1].

Hmm, I've had this problem with many recent (vanilla) kernels, up to and
including 3.9-rc5

cards or firewire devices handy to test that they work, but the system
now boots, which was not the case without your patch and IOMMU/DMAR
enabled.

That is really strange. Could you tell us what kernel version you tested
and provide dmesg output?

I'll capture a vanilla 3.8.5 boot without any patches and iommu=off,
then try to find another machine to catch what I can of a netconsole
boot with iommu=on. What's the preferred way to send these? pastebin
links?

I'd been running the 'dirty' fix that's in the redhat bugzilla entry. I
checked my .config and have CONFIG_PCI_QUIRKS=y, and verified my devices
are in the quirks table for the pci_func_0_dma_source fixup.

I believe this is referenced in drivers/pci/quirks.c for versions newer
than 3.5.

Thanks for testing!

[1] In the Ricoh case, multiple functions are used for real devices and
the bug is that these devices all use function 0 during DMA. In this
particular case, I'd expect the FireWire device 17:00.3 to issue DMA
from the SD Host Controller address 17:00.0. The quirk is not too much
of a terrible hack - it's a fairly simple translation.

In the Marvell case, the real device uses DMA source tags that don't
actually belong to any visible devices. The quirk to make this work is
more invasive, not nearly as elegant and has not attracted much
enthusiasm from subsystem maintainers, though I'm still hopeful that a
quirk will be merged in some form or another.


Thanks for explaining the difference!

Here are my relevant logs and configs from a vanilla 3.8.5 kernel:

http://www.erley.org/oops/

* the -nots files have had timestamps stripped for ease of diffing.

* no_iommu_no_fw.txt is a diff of the -nots logs.

* loading_fw.txt is an excerpt of log once I load the firewire-ohci
module (causing, for all practical purposes, a complete system lock.)

* the .gz of the same name is the 55mb of logs it generated in 36
seconds.

I was hesitant to send 100k of text to the ML, here is the only 'interesting' difference in the logs, from my inspection:

-PCI-DMA: Using software bounce buffering for IO (SWIOTLB)
-(64MB) mapped at [ffff8800b7a7c000-ffff8800bba7bfff]
+DMAR: No ATSR found
+IOMMU 0 0xfed90000: using Queued invalidation
+IOMMU: Setting RMRR:
+IOMMU: Setting identity map for device 0000:00:1a.0 [0xbbee9000 - 0xbbefffff]
+IOMMU: Setting identity map for device 0000:00:1d.0 [0xbbee9000 - 0xbbefffff]
+IOMMU: Prepare 0-16MiB unity mapping for LPC
+IOMMU: Setting identity map for device 0000:00:1f.0 [0x0 - 0xffffff]
+PCI-DMA: Intel(R) Virtualization Technology for Directed I/O

I was not able to find another machine with working network right now (at families house for the week), so the only way I was able to compare was:

Case 1:
Boot iommu=off with firewire-ohci not blacklisted

Case 2:
Boot iommu=on with firewire-ohci blacklisted
Load firewire-ohci

With your patch(admittedly, only tested on 3.9-rc5), Case 2 works, without it, I get my logs spammed with:

dmar: DRHD: handling fault status reg 2
dmar: DMAR:[DMA Read] Request device [17:00.0] fault addr fffff000
DMAR:[fault reason 02] Present bit in context entry is clear

When loading firewire.
