Hello, Here there is a series of 20 patches that lays the foundations for using dma_ops in i386 in the very same way x86_64, as well as many other architectures already do.
The functions themselves for i386 are placed in a pci-base_32.c, but just a few among them are actually implemented. Most were no-ops anyway. Also, as I said, this is by no means a complete coverage of dma_ops. there are still some call sites to be patches in pci-dma_32.c (although I don't really plan to change them, but to integrate them in a single pci-dma.c). I intend to have it done progressively. The granularity is per-operation, meaning each patch moves one specific function to the common header. This is compiled-tested in both i386 and x86_64 in ~5 randconfigs each, and boot-tested in my hardware with my default configs The motivation for that is the ongoing work for pci-passthrough in KVM. So ingo, avi, what do you think it's the best way to handle these patches through?
