Should we also have a further helper on top of this which will get constraints from a dmaengine, it seems like it'd be a common need?

Yep, we could create a wrapper extracting dma_slave caps info, converting it to sg_constraints and calling sg_alloc_table_from_buf(). But let's try to get this function accepted first, and I'll send another patch providing this wrapper. BTW, do you see other things that should be added in sg_constraints?

It looked to do everything SPI does which is everything I know about.

Is there a sane way to handle buffers of PKMAP_BASE region with sg_* APIs? Or, is the function sg_alloc_table_from_buf() not to be used with such buffers?

It should be usable with kmapped buffers too: I'll provide a new version to support that. That makes me realize I'm not checking the virtual address consistency in sg_check_constraints(). Thanks, Boris

sg_alloc_table_from_buf() provides an easy solution to create an sg_table from a virtual address pointer. This function takes care of dealing with vmallocated buffers, buffer alignment, or DMA engine limitations (maximum DMA transfer size).
