Though RADEON_GEM_GTT_WC is initially used for GTT, but this flag is
bound to drm_arch_can_wc_memory(), and if arch doesn't support WC, then
VRAM should not use WC.

    Shouldn't this statement be placed outside *if* as before?

Hi all,

In the current code, if CONFIG_CPU_LOONGSON64 is set, 
drm_arch_can_wc_memory()
returns false, and then bo->flags clears the flag RADEON_GEM_GTT_WC, so with
this patch, TTM_PL_FLAG_WC of VRAM is removed on the Loongson platform,
the writecombine issue for Loongson64 can be fixed [1].

I find this is done by commit 221004c66a58 ("drm: Loongson-3 doesn't fully
support wc memory"), but I want to know why drm_arch_can_wc_memory() returns
false for Loongson64, is there some historical reasons?

include/drm/drm_cache.h
static inline bool drm_arch_can_wc_memory(void)
{
#if defined(CONFIG_PPC) && !defined(CONFIG_NOT_COHERENT_CACHE)
     return false;
#elif defined(CONFIG_MIPS) && defined(CONFIG_CPU_LOONGSON64)
     return false;
#elif defined(CONFIG_ARM) || defined(CONFIG_ARM64)
...
}

drivers/gpu/drm/radeon/radeon_object.c
int radeon_bo_create()
{
...
     if (!drm_arch_can_wc_memory())
         bo->flags &= ~RADEON_GEM_GTT_WC;
...
}

And broken for mostly all other platforms. The patch is complete nonsense.

See the RADEON_GEM_GTT_WC flag means that that system memory can be 
mapped WC instead of cached, but here it is used to map MEMIO uncached 
instead of WC.

It looks like Loongson has a platform bug which prevents the PCIe 
extension which allows unsnooped system memory access to work correctly.

Christian.
