Re: [PATCH] drm/tinydrm: Allocate dummy SPI RX buffer if needed

Den 20.02.2018 00.21, skrev David Lechner:

This adds a new feature to allocate a dummy RX buffer for SPI controllers that require an RX buffer even when not receiving. If an RX buffer is not supplied, the SPI controller will reallocate a new buffer on each transfer.

On systems with limited memory (e.g. 64MB and CONFIG_SWAP=n), this reallocation will occasionally fail, which causes the display to stop working. By allocating this buffer once and reusing it, we can prevent this problem.

This patch also introduces some helper functions for calculating the size of this buffer, so these functions are re-used where possible (e.g. in mipi_dbi_init()).

This is a follow up from the mail thread "tinydrm: page allocation failure" [1]. I actually got an allocation failure a few times even when I had swap enabled, so I think this change is needed.

I was hoping that we could avoid touching drivers with this change.

In the current situation it would be enough to allocate a buffer the size of what tinydrm_spi_max_transfer_size() returns, because that's the maximun transfers length used in tinydrm_spi_transfer().

However Meghana is trying to remove the transfer buffer splitting [1], so I think we should wait and see the outcome of that first.

If in the end we do send the entire buffer, maybe we can defer allocating the rx buffer until the first time it is used so we can know the buffer size without asking the drivers.

If we add this and set it in mipi_dbi_init():

struct mipi_dbi {     u16 *tx_buf; +    size_t tx_len;  };

We can now allocate the rx buffer in mipi_dbi_typec3_command():

static int mipi_dbi_typec3_command(struct mipi_dbi *mipi, u8 cmd,                    u8 *par, size_t num) {

+    if (!mipi->rx_buf && spi->controller->flags & SPI_CONTROLLER_MUST_RX) { +        mipi->rx_buf = devm_kmalloc(dev, mipi->tx_len, GFP_KERNEL); +        if (!mipi->rx_buf) +            return -ENOMEM; +    }

}

Option 1 has it's own transfer buffer and size:

static int mipi_dbi_typec1_command(struct mipi_dbi *mipi, u8 cmd,                    u8 *parameters, size_t num) {

+        mipi->rx_buf = devm_kmalloc(dev, mipi->tx_buf9_len, GFP_KERNEL);

}

Hopefully before summer I have switched to vmalloc backing for the framebuffers (which means we can PRIME import from GPU's with shmem buffers). This means that we can just use vmalloc transfer buffers as well. The SPI core can dma map vmalloc buffers (spi_map_buf), it just makes an SG table with an entry per PAGE.
