Support for High DDR Memory?

yu-zou opened this issue · comments

Hi,

ZynqMP has two memory regions, low memory and high memory. E.g. on ZCU106, two memory regions exist:
image

It seems like udmabuf always allocate dma buffer in low memory. But that size is limited compared to the high memory.
Is there any support to allocate a dma buffer in high DDR memory?

Thank you.

Thank you for the issue

I haven't confirmed it directly, but I've received reports that that issue #45 has resolved a similar issue. please refer.

Hello @ikwzm , we are using high DDR memory (0x80000000 and up) on our project (Zyng US+, Petalinux kernel ver. 6.1.30). Reading the memory from user space works fine (using mmap), but we are having trouble with manual cache management - we consistently run into kernel panic whenever we write '1' into either sync_for_cpu or sync_for_device, regardless of size/offset parameters values.

We checked conformance with documentation (e.g. dma-coherent is 0, dma-mask is <64>, quirk_mmap is enabled ...).
Is manual cache management supposed to work in such cases? Thanks.

Thank you for the issue.

Please wait a moment for us to investigate.

I verified it here with kv260 using the following device tree, and it did not cause a kernel panic.

        reserved-memory {
                #address-cells = <2>;
                #size-cells = <2>;
                ranges;
                image_buf0: image_buf@0 {
                        compatible = "shared-dma-pool";
                        reusable;
                        reg = <0x8 0x00000000 0x0 0x00400000>;
                        label = "image_buf0";
                };
        };
        amba_pl: amba_pl@0 {
                #address-cells = <2>;
                #size-cells = <2>;
                compatible = "simple-bus";
                ranges ;
                udmabuf@0 {
                        compatible  = "ikwzm,u-dma-buf";
                        device-name = "udmabuf0";
                        size = <0x0 0x00400000>;
                        dma-mask = <64>;
                        memory-region = <&image_buf0>;
                };
        };
