Sure.

I guess this means "we support devices that can DMA, but are not coherent".
right?

Yes, basically when _CCA=0.

OK.

Why do we need to do that here (for the second time)?

Because we are calling:
acpi_create_platform_device()
|--> platform_device_register_device_full()
|-->platform_device_alloc()

This creates platform_device, which allocate a new platform_device->dev. This is not the same as the original acpi_device->dev that was created during acpi_add_single_object(). So, we have to set up the device coherency again.

Oh dear.

I made a mistake here. This logic should also call arch_setup_dma_ops() when cca_seen=0 and coherent=1 (e.g. when _CCA is not required and default to coherent when it is missing). The current logic doesn't do that.


What about

if (adev->flags.cca_seen && (coherent || IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_ACPI_SUPPORT_CCA_ZERO)))
arch_setup_dma_ops(dev, 0, 0, NULL, coherent);

What about:
if (coherent ||
(adev->flags.cca_seen &&
IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_ACPI_SUPPORT_CCA_ZERO))
arch_setup_dma_ops(dev, 0, 0, NULL, coherent);

I wonder how this is going to affect x86/ia64 too?


This should not affect x86 since arch_setup_dma_ops() is currently not implement for x86, and default to NOP (see include/linux/dma-mapping.h). Also, on x86, _CCA is not required and default to 1 if missing.

Thanks,
