There is an alignment mismatch issue between the of_reserved_mem and the CMA
setup requirement.
The alignment in
Documentation/devicetree/bindings/reserved-memory/reserved-memory.txt
alignment (optional) - length based on parent's #size-cells
- Address boundary for alignment of allocation.
But this is not exactly match the CMA setup requirement if the alignment not
set or set it not correctly.
The of_reserved_mem will get the alignment from the DTS and pass it to
__memblock_alloc_base to
do the memory block allocation. If no alignment property in the DTS, the align
will be SMP_CACHE_BYTES
BUT, The CMA setup require the alignment as the following in the code:
align = PAGE_SIZE << max(MAX_ORDER - 1, pageblock_order)
static int __init rmem_cma_setup(struct reserved_mem *rmem)
{
phys_addr_t align = PAGE_SIZE << max(MAX_ORDER - 1, pageblock_order);
phys_addr_t mask = align - 1;
unsigned long node = rmem->fdt_node;
struct cma *cma;
int err;
if (!of_get_flat_dt_prop(node, "reusable", NULL) ||
of_get_flat_dt_prop(node, "no-map", NULL))
return -EINVAL;
if ((rmem->base & mask) || (rmem->size & mask)) {
pr_err("Reserved memory: incorrect alignment of CMA region\n");
return -EINVAL;
}
<snip>
}
So, there is very likely that the alignment mismatch between the
of_reserved_mem and the CMA setup requirement.
The sanity check in the rmem_cma_setup will fail and CMA not get set up in the
end, this is not expected for CMA.
In the test, there will be following err log when this mismatch happen.
Reserved memory: incorrect alignment of CMA region.
The following patch to fix this issue, any comments?
