Modern platforms can install more than 4GB memory, so DMA address can larger than 32 bits. If a platform doesn't enable IOMMU, kernel needs extra works of swiotlb to help DMA that packets reside on memory over 4GB. The DMA addressing capability of Realtek WiFi chips is 36 bits, so set LSB 4 bits of high 32-bit address to register and TX/RX descriptor, which below figure shows 3-level pointers in TX direction, and RX direction is similar but 2-level pointers only. +--------+ | | register to head of TX BD +---|----+ | +---------+ +-----> | TX BD | (in memory) +----|----+ | +---------+ +------> | TX WD | (in memory) +----|----+ | +--------+ +------> | skb | +--------+ Signed-off-by: Ping-Ke Shih <pkshih@realtek.com> Link: https://msgid.link/20240611021901.26394-1-pkshih@realtek.com
