      drm/gem: remove misleading gfp parameter to get_pages() · 0cdbe8ac
      David Herrmann 提交于
      drm_gem_get_pages() currently allows passing a 'gfp' parameter that is
      passed to shmem combined with mapping_gfp_mask(). Given that the default
      mapping_gfp_mask() is GFP_HIGHUSER, it is _very_ unlikely that anyone will
      ever make use of that parameter. In fact, all drivers currently pass
      redundant flags or 0.
      
      This patch removes the 'gfp' parameter. The only reason to keep it is to
      remove flags like __GFP_WAIT. But in its current form, it can only be used
      to add flags. So to remove __GFP_WAIT, you'd have to drop it from the
      mapping_gfp_mask, which again is stupid as this mask is used by shmem-core
      for other allocations, too.
      
      If any driver ever requires that parameter, we can introduce a new helper
      that takes the raw 'gfp' parameter. The caller'd be responsible to combine
      it with mapping_gfp_mask() in a suitable way. The current
      drm_gem_get_pages() helper would then simply use mapping_gfp_mask() and
      call the new helper. This is what shmem_read_mapping_pages{_gfp,} does
      right now.
      
      Moreover, the gfp-zone flag-usage is not obvious: If you pass a modified
      zone, shmem core will WARN() or even BUG(). In other words, the following
      must be true for 'gfp' passed to shmem_read_mapping_pages_gfp():
          gfp_zone(mapping_gfp_mask(mapping)) == gfp_zone(gfp)
      Add a comment to drm_gem_read_pages() explaining that constraint.

      drm/omap: use __GFP_DMA32 for shmem-backed gem · ab5a60c3
      David Herrmann 提交于
      OMAP requires bo-pages to be in the DMA32 zone. Explicitly request this by
      setting __GFP_DMA32 as mapping-gfp-mask during shmem initialization. This
      drops HIGHMEM from the gfp-mask and uses DMA32 instead. shmem-core takes
      care to relocate pages during swap-in in case they have been loaded into
      the wrong zone.
      
      It is _not_ possible to pass __GFP_DMA32 to shmem_read_mapping_page_gfp()
      as the page might have already been swapped-in at that time. The zone-mask
      must be set during initialization and be kept constant for now.
      
      Remove the now superfluous TODO in omap_gem.c.
