It seems that your DMA memory region is actually made of small subregions of size DMA_PAGESIZE aliased to the RAM. Now looking at the address_space_rw function, it seems it optimizes the write to RAM case by calling address_space_translate() and then doing a memcpy() of the whole region. It doesn't work given the memory region is not linear. That said address_space_translate is supposed to adjust the length if needed, but does so only if iommu_ops is defined. I therefore wonder if you therefore shouldn't model this DMA translation tables by using IOMMU ops instead of subregions.

Then, the problem lies here. If you can use address_space_rw only on an address range which is linear in underlying memory region, or if underlying memory region is a iommu, then you have a big problem. As you can't query if that's the case, your only bet is to use address_space_rw with only 1 byte quantities... Adding Paolo, as he may have an idea. > I therefore wonder if > you therefore shouldn't model this DMA translation tables by using IOMMU > ops instead of subregions. > No, in my opinion, that's an implementation detail. Paolo said that it was OK: "Both are okay. The IOMMU makes address space changes faster; your scheme is basically a form of caching, it trades update performance for improved translation performance." http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2015-03/msg05486.html Regards, Hervé

One fix would be to adjust the length even without IOMMU. That would have some performance impact though, so maybe we want to make this assumption clear and always use an IOMMU in that case. > > I therefore wonder if > >you therefore shouldn't model this DMA translation tables by using IOMMU > >ops instead of subregions. > > > No, in my opinion, that's an implementation detail.

And if we fix the bug by adjusting the length, the above sentence about the performances might becomes wrong Aurelien.

I think this is exactly what Peter Crosthwaite's infamous :) "exec: Respect as_translate_internal length clamp" patch was trying to fix. However, address_space_translate_internal uses section->mr->size instead of section->size. I'll post a patch once I'm through the email deluge from 1 week of absence. If I read correctly the patch that introduced address_space_translate, the bug has always been there. > One fix would be to adjust the > length even without IOMMU.

I don't think there would be a performance impact, except in buggy cases such as the one Hervé is fixing.

This workarounds a bug in memory management. To reproduce the problem, try to start the Windows NT 4.0/MIPS installer. After loading some files, you should see a screen saying "To set up Windows NT now, press ENTER." However, you're welcomed with an IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL bugcheck or an Unknown Hard Error c0000221.
