> If the device *is* inherently 64-bit capable, then setting 64-bit masks in the driver is correct - if a 64-bit IP block happens to have been integrated with only 32 address bits wired up, but the system has memory above the 32-bit boundary, then that should be described via "dma-ranges", which should then end up being used to further constrain the device masks internally to the DMA API.

I agree. In this case, it looks like DMA API is allocating memory > 32-bits
even if "dma-ranges" size and dma_bus_limit is < 32-bits so issue is with
platform DMA code.

I will continue the discussion in the other thread
