[v4,01/17] remoteproc: configure IOMMU only if device address requested

If there is no IOMMU associate to remote processor device,
remoteproc_core won't be able to satisfy device address requested
in firmware resource table.
Return an error as configuration won't be coherent.

This patch is breaking my Davinci platforms. It is not really required
that you _should_ have IOMMUs when a valid DA is mentioned. Please see
the existing description (paras 4 and 5) on the fw_rsc_carveout
kerneldoc in remoteproc.h file.

We do have platforms where we have some internal sub-modules within the
remote processor sub-system that provides some linear
address-translation (most common case with 32-bit processors supporting
64-bit addresses). Also, we have some upcoming SoCs where we have an MMU
but is not programmable by Linux.

There is one comment there, but I don't think this is actually handled
in the current remoteproc core.
"If @da is set to
 * FW_RSC_ADDR_ANY, then the host will dynamically allocate it, and then
 * overwrite @da with the dynamically allocated address."

Thanks for pointing this comment. Indeed sMMU is not mandatory, and at first sight I agree we should remove the restriction introduced by the patch.
Driver porting on the series should be done before adding this.

I don't remember it was implemented like described.

I have remarks about the comment:
"* We will always use @da to negotiate the device addresses, even if it
 * isn't using an iommu. In that case, though, it will obviously contain
 * physical addresses."

When there is no sMMU, we can't consider that da contains a physical address because coprocessor can have its own memory map just because it is a 32bit processor accessing only a part of the memory and the main is 64bit one. The 2 processors won't see the internal memory at the same base address for example.

So what should we do when carveout allocated by host is not fitting with resource table request?
- put a warning and overwrite da address in the resource table?
- stop rproc probe as no match detected?

Later in the series, carveout allocation is changed. Resource table carveout are either linked with an existing carveout registered by driver or added to carveout list for allocations.
In the case you described, TI driver should first register the specific carveout regions thank to the helper.

Yes, it was missing, and one of your patches seem to add this behavior
now. That said, I really don't think the remoteproc core can dictate the
 da. Even if the individual remoteproc driver were to furnish this, how
would you get such data without forcing a fixed behavior for all
possible firmwares (not desirable). We should get rid of this comment,
and any code that seems to do this.

Agreed, believe it was valid when it was written (32-bit platforms
supporting 32-bit addresses). I think this is akin to an IPA
(Intermediate Physical Address).

Hmm, why da? This goes to my earlier comment about how you are able to
decide the da. Atleast your current ST driver seems to be assigning the
same value as the physical bus address for da, which would prompt why
you would still need a carveout entry in the resource table if it is
truly one-to-one.

Eg, I have an upcoming usecase with R5Fs on newer TI SoCs where we
actually have a sub-module called Region Address Translator (RAT) which
can only be programmed by the R5F for translating the 32-bit CPU
addresses to larger physical address space, and yet I need the da and pa
to be able to do loading. I cannot dictate the da since that is what the
firmware images are linked against. So, have to rely on the firmware
providing this data for me.

I think that is the safest approach.

The current series should still continue to work without having to
enforce new name assignments (unless needed and being defined to use the
new features being added).

Maybe this should really be a reverse check when you have MMUs,
if (rproc->domain && rsc->da == FW_RSC_ADDR_ANY)

Agree that if some rules are fixed by firmware, rproc core can't overwrite them.
It was the goal of the patch as without sMMU if you don't have a match between rproc core carveout allocation and firmware rsc request, rproc core can't answer the request.
In the rest of the series, da in rsc table is updated only in some specific cases (i.e. da is equal to FW_RSC_ADDR_ANY). If there is a force update I agree we should not allow it.

So we agree on the patch if a WARN is added and comment updated.
Are we aligned ?

OK but if we implement above solution, if da is different from "dma" address (from dma_alloc_coherent) and no sMMU registered, rproc start procedure will failed.

Question is what are we going to use to check that - da or pa? With
fixed memory support, I would think that this would have to be based on
pa if specified. Given that the meaning of da can change from firmware
to firmware (in the case of some translators), but you can only reserve
a fixed reserved memory at kernel bootup time.

Did you mixup the comments from patch 2 here? This patch is still not ok
because of the implicit assumptions - we can have a valid da specified
even with no MMUs (because of some psuedo-MMU like sub-modules that can
provide the translation on the remote-processor side).

That would be the case only when you have no translators of any kind in
between the CPU and the bus right within the remote processor subsystem
right and really da == dma (or pa)? In patch 2, you modified the rsc->pa
from dma to rproc_va_to_pa() to actually reflect the pa, yet here using
dma as the actual device address.
