The SDHCI controller on Tegra186 supports 40-bit addressing, which is
usually enough to address all of system memory. However, if the SDHCI
controller is behind an IOMMU, the address space can go beyond. This
happens on Tegra186 and later where the ARM SMMU has an input address
space of 48 bits. If the DMA API is backed by this ARM SMMU, the top-
down IOVA allocator will cause IOV addresses to be returned that the
SDHCI controller cannot access.
Unfortunately, prior to the introduction of the ->set_dma_mask() host
operation, the SDHCI core would set either a 64-bit DMA mask if the
controller claimed to support 64-bit addressing, or a 32-bit DMA mask
otherwise.
Since the full 64 bits cannot be addressed on Tegra, this had to be
worked around in commit 68481a7e1c ("mmc: tegra: Mark 64 bit dma
broken on Tegra186") by setting the SDHCI_QUIRK2_BROKEN_64_BIT_DMA
quirk, which effectively restricts the DMA mask to 32 bits.
One disadvantage of this is that dma_map_*() APIs will now try to use
the swiotlb to bounce DMA to addresses beyond of the controller's DMA
mask. This in turn caused degraded performance and can lead to
situations where the swiotlb buffer is exhausted, which in turn leads
to DMA transfers to fail.
With the recent introduction of the ->set_dma_mask() host operation,
this can now be properly fixed. For each generation of Tegra, the exact
supported DMA mask can be configured. This kills two birds with one
stone: it avoids the use of bounce buffers because system memory never
exceeds the addressable memory range of the SDHCI controllers on these
devices, and at the same time when an IOMMU is involved, it prevents
IOV addresses from being allocated beyond the addressible range of the
controllers.
Since the DMA mask is now properly handled, the 64-bit DMA quirk can be
removed.
