Description Jay Fenlason 2010-07-02 21:45:17 UTC
Description of problem:


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
2.6.35-0.19.rc3.git4.fc14.x86_64

How reproducible:
Always (so far, anyway)

Steps to Reproduce:
1.ifconfig a cxgb3 as 172.31.1.1
2.ping the remote machine 172.31.1.2
3.look at dmesg
  
Actual results:

Expected results:
no warning in dmesg

Additional info:

Comment 1 Chuck Ebbert 2010-07-14 06:59:33 UTC
Is it still happening in 2.6.35-rc5?

Comment 2 Chuck Ebbert 2010-07-22 20:09:01 UTC
Can you report this upstream? Looks like the conversion to the generic DMA API exposed this bug.

Comment 3 Divy Le Ray 2010-07-23 17:50:33 UTC
I can reproduce it with CONFIG_DMA_API_DEBUG on.

In my setup, the warning happens invariably:
- only once, right after a reboot
- on the second dma sync the driver executes.

I start believing that the issue lies in the dma debug code. It is as if the
first dma sync created the bucket entry for the device, and the subsequent first lookup for the debug ref fails.

For debug puposes, I hacked the driver to allocate a page, map it and sync it twice, and do it only once, prior to filling up the Rx descriptors.
The warning appears in this sequence on the second sync.

The warning now triggers in the debug code.

Comment 4 Bug Zapper 2010-07-30 12:24:28 UTC
This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 14 development cycle.
Changing version to '14'.

More information and reason for this action is here:

Comment 5 Neil Horman 2011-06-15 12:52:28 UTC
I agree with Divy, it appears the debug_dma_sync_single_for_device code uses a hash bucked to track dma mappings that presumes the dma_handle is immutable during teh lifetime of a mapping (i.e. the address returned to pci_map_[page|single|etc] is what will always be passed to the sync_* api calls without any offset.  The dma debug code needs to be taught that a particular sync may not be given at the start of a mapping, and may cross mapping boundaries.  I'll try put together a patch.

Comment 6 Neil Horman 2011-06-15 17:51:08 UTC
Created attachment 504916 [details]
patch to dma library to allow flexibility in entry discovery

Jay,Divy, would one of you mind testing this out to see if it resolves this problem?  Thanks!

Comment 7 Neil Horman 2011-07-12 13:41:45 UTC
ok, been almost a month here, any feedback on this patch?

Comment 8 Jay Fenlason 2011-07-19 17:23:30 UTC
The patch quiets the warning.

Comment 9 Neil Horman 2011-07-19 17:43:10 UTC
Thank you, sent upstream:
http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=131109732210343&w=2

Comment 10 Neil Horman 2011-08-08 19:18:17 UTC
new patch version sent to that thread based on reviews.

Comment 11 Neil Horman 2011-08-23 17:30:39 UTC
Jay, the new version of the patch, with some minor adjustments has been accepted upstream.  I just noted today that F16 alpha is on its way out.  Do you still want this backported to F14 or should I close it as NEXTRELEASE?

Comment 12 Jay Fenlason 2011-08-23 17:52:31 UTC
NEXTRELEASE is fine with me.

Comment 13 Neil Horman 2011-08-23 18:14:58 UTC
copy that, it should get pulled into mainline and rawhide by the time F16 releases.
