Subject[PATCH 0/4] Fix and extend uio_dmem_genirq
Date
Hello,

as a part of my work related usually to FPGAs, I was playing with the
uio_dmem_genirq. First, I've discovered a (possible) bug in the
uio_dmem_genirq in exposing the dynamic regions to userspace (patch 0001).
When specifying a number of dynamic regions, one mapping is (due to
counting IORESOURCE_IRQ) skipped:

.../maps/map0/addr: 0xe000b000 <<< IORESOURCE_MEM from reg = <...>
.../maps/map0/size: 0x00001000
.../maps/map1/addr: 0xffffffff <<< no mapping (skipped due to IORESOURCE_IRQ)
.../maps/map1/size: 0x00008000
.../maps/map2/addr: 0x1e210000 <<< the first dynamic mapping
.../maps/map2/size: 0x00008000
.../maps/map3/addr: 0x1e218000
.../maps/map3/size: 0x00008000
.../maps/map4/addr: 0x1e220000
.../maps/map4/size: 0x00008000

Next, I needed to do some DMA from userspace and I didn't like to change
the kernel at all. The uio_pdrv_genirq has a feature to specify of_id
when calling insmod to bind to a specific device. I've implemented this
(patches 0002-0004) for uio_dmem_genirq and added two OF properties to
specify memory allocations. The work is inspired by those commits (but
reworked):
