From 6a02734d420fca778554878d03017017537d92e1 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Thomas Petazzoni Date: Thu, 16 Jun 2016 15:42:26 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] ARM: mvebu: map PCI I/O regions strongly ordered In order for HW I/O coherency to work on Cortex-A9 based Marvell SoCs, all MMIO registers must be mapped strongly ordered. In commit 1c8c3cf0b5239 ("ARM: 8060/1: mm: allow sub-architectures to override PCI I/O memory type") we implemented a new function, pci_ioremap_set_mem_type(), that allow sub-architecture code to override the memory type used to map PCI I/O regions. In the discussion around this patch series [1], Arnd Bergmann made the comment that maybe all PCI I/O regions should be mapped strongly-ordered, which would have made our proposal to add pci_ioremap_set_mem_type() irrelevant. So, we submitted a patch [2] that did what Arnd suggested. However, Russell in the end merged our initial proposal to add pci_ioremap_set_mem_type(), but it was never used anywhere. Further discussion with Arnd and other folks on IRC lead to the conclusion that in fact using strongly-ordered for all platforms was maybe not desirable, and therefore, using pci_ioremap_set_mem_type() was the most appropriate solution. As a consequence, this commit finally adds the pci_ioremap_set_mem_type() call in the mach-mvebu platform code, which was originally part of our initial patch series [3] and is necessary for the whole mechanism to work.
