    dma-buf: heaps: Skip sync if not mapped · 4c68e499
    John Stultz authored
    This patch is basically a port of Ørjan Eide's similar patch for ION
     https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20200414134629.54567-1-orjan.eide@arm.com/
    
    Only sync the sg-list of dma-buf heap attachment when the attachment
    is actually mapped on the device.
    
    dma-bufs may be synced at any time. It can be reached from user space
    via DMA_BUF_IOCTL_SYNC, so there are no guarantees from callers on when
    syncs may be attempted, and dma_buf_end_cpu_access() and
    dma_buf_begin_cpu_access() may not be paired.
    
    Since the sg_list's dma_address isn't set up until the buffer is used
    on the device, and dma_map_sg() is called on it, the dma_address will be
    NULL if sync is attempted on the dma-buf before it's mapped on a device.
    
    Before v5.0 (commit 55897af6 ("dma-direct: merge swiotlb_dma_ops
    into the dma_direct code")) this was a problem as the dma-api (at least
    the swiotlb_dma_ops on arm64) would use the potentially invalid
    dma_address. How that failed depended on how the device handled physical
    address 0. If 0 was a valid address to physical ram, that page would get
    flushed a lot, while the actual pages in the buffer would not get synced
    correctly. While if 0 is an invalid physical address it may cause a
    fault and trigger a crash.
    
    In v5.0 this was incidentally fixed by commit 55897af6 ("dma-direct:
    merge swiotlb_dma_ops into the dma_direct code"), as this moved the
    dma-api to use the page pointer in the sg_list, and (for Ion buffers at
    least) this will always be valid if the sg_list exists at all.
    
    But, this issue is re-introduced in v5.3 with
    commit 449fa54d ("dma-direct: correct the physical addr in
    dma_direct_sync_sg_for_cpu/device") moves the dma-api back to the old
    behaviour and picks the dma_address that may be invalid.
    
    dma-buf core doesn't ensure that the buffer is mapped on the device, and
    thus have a valid sg_list, before calling the exporter's
    begin_cpu_access.
