Please don't add any new users of mxc_arch_reset_init_dt(). We now
have infrastructure to register a system-reset handler from the
watchdog driver, so please do that instead, and clean up the
existing users as well.

I believe someone recently posted a patch to derive the dma_zone_size
from device tree. Can yo try to find that and see if that will work
for you?

Can you explain what the reason is for needing a DMA zone?

I just notice the restart_handler support, I will use that instead, thanks.

With LPAE enabled on our SoC, we meet the system complaint of
"coherent DMA mask 0xffffffff is smaller than system GFP_DMA mask 0xffffffffffffffff",
and I notice that CONFIG_ZONE_DMA and dma_zone_size is a common resolve for this.
Thanks.

Ok, I see. The actual point of dma_zone_size however is slightly
different, and I think you should not use it like this. We normally
only use ZONE_DMA if there are devices that have a limitation smaller
than 4GB, and that appear to be the case for your system.

The message you quote is only present in arch/powerpc, so I'm not sure
what symptoms you are actually seeing. Please try removing the
dma_zone_size setting for your platform and report if it works or
what the symptom is if it does not work with the latest kernel.

We definitely need to get this to work out of the box without
a dma_zone_size hack.

Can you describe what the memory layout is of your platform? Can you
have RAM installed above the 4GB physical address boundary? If you
can, are there any devices that are unable to perform DMA into that
memory without the use of an IOMMU?

Our first LS1021A support is based on kernel-3.12, where when LPAE enabled
it will compare the device's coherent_dma_mask with arm_dma_limit, which is
64-bit 0xffffffffffffffff without CONFIG_ZONE_DMA, with CONFIG_ZONE_DMA can
limit the comparison and avoid the warning.
All device can address 32-bit address space on LS1021A, With you comment above,
I remove the dma_zone_size and only reserve the CONFIG_ZONE_DMA On kernel-3.12,
finding all works well, so I will remove the dma_zone_size setting on 3.12. Thanks.

I have a look on latest kernel, finding get_coherent_dma_mask() has limited the mask
to (u64)DMA_BIT_MASK(32), does this mean the CONFIG_ZONE_DMA is not needed for me
here? Thanks.

Our platform has implemented the Large physical Address Extension, with 40-bit
address space, SDRAM can be above 4GB address, but currently we only use the DDR
controller1 at 0x80000000 below 4GB on our QDS and TWR board. Others is above 4GB
address. PCIE address is also above 4GB address and we are adding support to it.
Thanks.

Ok, good.

You only need to enable CONFIG_ZONE_DMA in the case of RAM above the 4GB
boundary. I would suggest you do the same as some of the other platforms
by adding

	select ZONE_DMA if ARM_LPAE

into your Kconfig file. If LPAE is disabled, you know that you won't
need ZONE_DMA.
