Subject[PATCH 1/1] Userspace I/O (UIO): Add support for userspace DMA
Date
From
From: Edward Estabrook <Edward_Estabrook@agilent.com>

Here is a patch that adds the ability to dynamically allocate (and use) coherent DMA from userspace by extending the userspace IO driver. This patch applies against 2.6.28-rc6.

The gist of this implementation is to overload uio's mmap functionality to allocate and map a new DMA region on demand. The bus-specific DMA address as returned by dma_alloc_coherent is made available to userspace in the 1st long word of the newly created region (as well as through the conventional 'addr' file in sysfs).

To allocate a DMA region you use the following:
/* Pass this magic number to mmap as offset to dynamically allocate a chunk of memory */ #define DMA_MEM_ALLOCATE_MMAP_OFFSET 0xFFFFF000UL

void* memory = mmap (NULL, size, PROT_READ | PROT_WRITE , MAP_SHARED, fd, DMA_MEM_ALLOCATE_MMAP_OFFSET); u_int64_t *addr = *(u_int64_t *) memory;

where 'size' is the size in bytes of the region you want and fd is the opened /dev/uioN file.

Allocation occurs in page sized pieces by design to ensure that buffers are page-aligned.

Memory is released when uio_unregister_device() is called.

I have used this extensively on a 2.6.21-based kernel and ported it to 2.6.28-rc6 for review / submission here.

Comments appreciated!
