Hey Peter,
Currently I have this test in the driver which allocates data, assign it to
default value config source as the BASE address of dma, dest as the physical
address which I got from dma_alloc_coherent, set the count and assign the
command to raise interrupt and read,the piece of code used is something like
this(this a test performed from the probe function of the driver)
vaddr_to =
dma_alloc_coherent(&(dev->dev), 4, &dma_handle_to, GFP_ATOMIC |GFP_KERNEL);
*((volatile int*)vaddr_to) = 0xff;
test->vaddr_to = vaddr_to;
dev_info(&(dev->dev), "vaddr_to
= %px\n", vaddr_to);
dev_info(&(dev->dev),
"dma_handle_to = %llx\n", (unsigned long long)dma_handle_to);
iowrite32(DMA_BASE, mmio +
IO_DMA_SRC);
iowrite32((u32)dma_handle_to,
mmio + IO_DMA_DST);
iowrite32(SIZE, mmio +
IO_DMA_CNT);
iowrite32(DMA_CMD | DMA_FROM_DEV
| DMA_IRQ, mmio + IO_DMA_CMD);
Where and when should the pci_set_master hould be called?
Thanks,
Shaked Matzner

The usual mistake is forgetting in the guest code to program the
PCI device to enable bus mastering by setting the Bus Master bit
in the Command register in the PCI config space registers for
the device. Unless you do that then all DMA attempts will fail
(same as on real h/w). In the Linux kernel the function for this
is pci_set_master(), I think.
thanks
