H A Dbusdma_bounce.cdiff 239008 Fri Aug 03 11:54:41 MDT 2012 jhb Improve the handling of static DMA buffers that use non-default memory
attributes (currently just BUS_DMA_NOCACHE):
- Don't call pmap_change_attr() on the returned address, instead use
kmem_alloc_contig() to ask the VM system for memory with the requested
attribute.
- As a result, always use kmem_alloc_contig() for non-default memory
attributes, even for sub-page allocations. This requires adjusting
bus_dmamem_free()'s logic for determining which free routine to use.
- For x86, add a new dummy bus_dmamap that is used for static DMA
buffers allocated via kmem_alloc_contig(). bus_dmamem_free() can then
use the map pointer to determine which free routine to use.
- For powerpc, add a new flag to the allocated map (bus_dmamem_alloc()
always creates a real map on powerpc) to indicate which free routine
should be used.

Note that the BUS_DMA_NOCACHE handling in powerpc is currently #ifdef'd out.
I have left it disabled but updated it to match x86.
