Now, the question: when for real we should use such a solution?

Larry, could you check your driver? Can you see anything about this?
Is this maybe PCI (not PCIe!) specific?

I've checked thread "Interesting 14e4:4321". It seems both: 14e4:4321
and 14e4:4322 are using PCI slot and both are not working in DMA mode.
I start believing it's PCI specific.

If you take a look at current ssb code and defines:

if (ssb_read32(dev, SSB_TMSHIGH)&    SSB_TMSHIGH_DMA64)
        return SSB_PCIE_DMA_H32;
else
        return SSB_PCI_DMA;

You can see 0x80000000 (SSB_PCIE_DMA_H32) has actually "PCIE" in it's
name. This can be true that 0x80000000 is *only* for *64-bit DMA* on
*PCIe*.

That is almost correct. This time I found it. The pseudo code is:

dma_addr_lo = 0
dma_addr_hi = 0
if PCI || PCIe
        if PCIe&&  64-bit DMA
                dma_addr_hi = 0x80000000
        else
                if chipID is 0x4322, 43221, 43231, or 43222
                        dma_addr_lo = 0x80000000
                else
                        dma_addr_lo = 0x40000000<== your case

Thus it is just a little more complicated than a PCI/PCIe split, as it also
depends on the chip ID.

I'll add this to the specs.

Can you (anyone, not just Larry ;) ) give me some tip, how to
implement this correctly? From programming POV.

We should return two infos from ssb code now:
1) Routing bit
2) Address which should be used

Should I add new function for this? Or create struct
dma_translation_info with 2 fields? Or return array? Or...?

How about more pseudo code? Broadcom sets those dma_addr_hi/lo words in a struct when they are setting up the TX/RX rings. Then they do the following when actually setting up the 64-bit DMA operation:

dmaaddr_t phys

if !dma_addr_lo || !(phys.loaddr & 0xc0000000)
        ring.address_lo = phys.loaddr + dma_addr_lo
        ring.address_hi = phys.hiaddr + dma_addr_hi
        ring.ctrl1 = ...
else
        u32 addr_ext = phys.loaddr & 0xc0000000
        phys.loaddr &= ~0xc0000000
        ring.address_lo = phys.loaddr + dma_addr_lo
        ring.address_hi = dma_addr_hi
        ring.ctrl1 = ....

On second thought, what I call dma_addr_{lo,hi} might be called dma_offset_{lo,hi}, or even dma_mask_{lo,hi}.

As to the programming question, setting up these offsets can easily be done the way they do.
