This patch is basically a port of Ørjan Eide's similar patch for ION https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20200414134629.54567-1-orjan.eide@arm.com/ Only sync the sg-list of dma-buf heap attachment when the attachment is actually mapped on the device. dma-bufs may be synced at any time. It can be reached from user space via DMA_BUF_IOCTL_SYNC, so there are no guarantees from callers on when syncs may be attempted, and dma_buf_end_cpu_access() and dma_buf_begin_cpu_access() may not be paired. Since the sg_list's dma_address isn't set up until the buffer is used on the device, and dma_map_sg() is called on it, the dma_address will be NULL if sync is attempted on the dma-buf before it's mapped on a device. Before v5.0 (commit55897af630("dma-direct: merge swiotlb_dma_ops into the dma_direct code")) this was a problem as the dma-api (at least the swiotlb_dma_ops on arm64) would use the potentially invalid dma_address. How that failed depended on how the device handled physical address 0. If 0 was a valid address to physical ram, that page would get flushed a lot, while the actual pages in the buffer would not get synced correctly. While if 0 is an invalid physical address it may cause a fault and trigger a crash. In v5.0 this was incidentally fixed by commit55897af630("dma-direct: merge swiotlb_dma_ops into the dma_direct code"), as this moved the dma-api to use the page pointer in the sg_list, and (for Ion buffers at least) this will always be valid if the sg_list exists at all. But, this issue is re-introduced in v5.3 with commit449fa54d68("dma-direct: correct the physical addr in dma_direct_sync_sg_for_cpu/device") moves the dma-api back to the old behaviour and picks the dma_address that may be invalid. dma-buf core doesn't ensure that the buffer is mapped on the device, and thus have a valid sg_list, before calling the exporter's begin_cpu_access.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
