Hi Will,

of_dma_configure determines the size of the DMA range for a device by
either parsing the dma-ranges property or inspecting the coherent DMA

Sadly, NAK on this one. After a thorough investigation and testing, generic code really shouldn't be touching dma_parms like this, and I have some corrupted files on my USB filesystem to prove it ;) It seems it's a bad idea to effectively change the default segment size universally unless you really want to go through the entire block layer (and who-knows-what-else) to find and fix everything that relies on it being 64k.

Simply dropping this patch and letting the existing defaults in dma_set_max_seg_size and dma_get_seg_boundary stand seems like the correct action.


Marek, I believe you may have some use case for this - if so, as I understand it your individual drivers should be setting up their own dma_parms directly, to tell the IOMMU they can handle it merging scatterlists into arbitrarily long segments, without affecting the other drivers that assume they'll never see >64k segments and go wrong if they do (including the generic USB stack, apparently).
