Client Drivers
|
||||
--------------
|
||||
|
||||
A client driver typically only has to conditionally change its DMA map
|
||||
routine to use the mapping function :c:func:`pci_p2pdma_map_sg()` instead
|
||||
of the usual :c:func:`dma_map_sg()` function. Memory mapped in this
|
||||
way does not need to be unmapped.
|
||||
|
||||
The client may also, optionally, make use of
|
||||
:c:func:`is_pci_p2pdma_page()` to determine when to use the P2P mapping
|
||||
functions and when to use the regular mapping functions. In some
|
||||
situations, it may be more appropriate to use a flag to indicate a
|
||||
given request is P2P memory and map appropriately. It is important to
|
||||
ensure that struct pages that back P2P memory stay out of code that
|
||||
does not have support for them as other code may treat the pages as
|
||||
regular memory which may not be appropriate.
|
||||
A client driver only has to use the mapping API :c:func:`dma_map_sg()`
|
||||
and :c:func:`dma_unmap_sg()` functions as usual, and the implementation
|
||||
will do the right thing for the P2P capable memory.
