page_pool: fragment API support for 32-bit arch with 64-bit DMA
Currently page_pool_alloc_frag() is not supported in 32-bit arch with 64-bit DMA because of the overlap issue between pp_frag_count and dma_addr_upper in 'struct page' for those arches, which seems to be quite common, see [1], which means driver may need to handle it when using fragment API. It is assumed that the combination of the above arch with an address space >16TB does not exist, as all those arches have 64b equivalent, it seems logical to use the 64b version for a system with a large address space. It is also assumed that dma address is page aligned when we are dma mapping a page aligned buffer, see [2]. That means we're storing 12 bits of 0 at the lower end for a dma address, we can reuse those bits for the above arches to support 32b+12b, which is 16TB of memory. If we make a wrong assumption, a warning is emitted so that user can report to us. 1. https://lore.kernel.org/all/20211117075652.58299-1-linyunsheng@huawei.com/ 2. https://lore.kernel.org/all/20230818145145.4b357c89@kernel.org/Tested-by: Alexander Lobakin <aleksander.lobakin@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Yunsheng Lin <linyunsheng@huawei.com> CC: Lorenzo Bianconi <lorenzo@kernel.org> CC: Alexander Duyck <alexander.duyck@gmail.com> CC: Liang Chen <liangchen.linux@gmail.com> CC: Guillaume Tucker <guillaume.tucker@collabora.com> CC: Matthew Wilcox <willy@infradead.org> CC: Linux-MM <linux-mm@kvack.org> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20231013064827.61135-2-linyunsheng@huawei.comSigned-off-by: Jakub Kicinski <kuba@kernel.org>
