linux 之dma_buf (8)- ION简化版本

一、前言

我们学习了如何使用 alloc_page() 方式来分配内存，但是该驱动只能分配1个PAGE_SIZE。本篇我们将在上一篇的基础上，实现一个简化版的ION驱动，以此来实现任意 size 大小的内存分配。

二、准备

为了和 kernel 标准 ion 驱动兼容，本篇引用了 driver/staging/android/uapi/ion.h 头文件，目的是为了方便 userspace 直接使用 struct ion_allocation_data 和 ION_IOC_ALLOC 宏：

struct ion_allocation_data {__u64 len;__u32 heap_id_mask;__u32 flags;__u32 fd;__u32 unused;
};#define ION_IOC_MAGIC		'I'
#define ION_IOC_ALLOC		_IOWR(ION_IOC_MAGIC, 0, \struct ion_allocation_data)

 本篇 ion 驱动只使用 ion_allocation_data 结构体中的 len 和 fd 这两个元素，其它元素不做处理。

三、示例

 exporter-ion.c

#include <linux/dma-buf.h>
#include <linux/highmem.h>
#include <linux/module.h>
#include <linux/slab.h>
#include <linux/miscdevice.h>struct ion_allocation_data {__u64 len;__u32 heap_id_mask;__u32 flags;__u32 fd;__u32 unused;
};#define ION_IOC_MAGIC           'I'
#define ION_IOC_ALLOC           _IOWR(ION_IOC_MAGIC, 0, \struct ion_allocation_data)struct ion_data {int npages;struct page *pages[];
};static int ion_attach(struct dma_buf *dmabuf, struct device *dev,struct dma_buf_attachment *attachment)
{pr_info("dmabuf attach device: %s\n", dev_name(dev));return 0;
}static void ion_detach(struct dma_buf *dmabuf, struct dma_buf_attachment *attachment)
{pr_info("dmabuf detach device: %s\n", dev_name(attachment->dev));
}static struct sg_table *ion_map_dma_buf(struct dma_buf_attachment *attachment,enum dma_data_direction dir)
{struct ion_data *data = attachment->dmabuf->priv;struct sg_table *table;struct scatterlist *sg;int i;table = kmalloc(sizeof(*table), GFP_KERNEL);sg_alloc_table(table, data->npages, GFP_KERNEL);sg = table->sgl;for (i = 0; i < data->npages; i++) {sg_set_page(sg, data->pages[i], PAGE_SIZE, 0);sg = sg_next(sg);}dma_map_sg(NULL, table->sgl, table->nents, dir);return table;
}static void ion_unmap_dma_buf(struct dma_buf_attachment *attachment,struct sg_table *table,enum dma_data_direction dir)
{dma_unmap_sg(NULL, table->sgl, table->nents, dir);sg_free_table(table);kfree(table);
}static void ion_release(struct dma_buf *dma_buf)
{struct ion_data *data = dma_buf->priv;int i;pr_info("dmabuf release\n");for (i = 0; i < data->npages; i++)put_page(data->pages[i]);kfree(data);
}
static void *ion_vmap(struct dma_buf *dma_buf)
{struct ion_data *data = dma_buf->priv;return vm_map_ram(data->pages, data->npages, 0, PAGE_KERNEL);
}static void ion_vunmap(struct dma_buf *dma_buf, void *vaddr)
{struct ion_data *data = dma_buf->priv;vm_unmap_ram(vaddr, data->npages);
}static int ion_mmap(struct dma_buf *dma_buf, struct vm_area_struct *vma)
{struct ion_data *data = dma_buf->priv;unsigned long vm_start = vma->vm_start;int i;for (i = 0; i < data->npages; i++) {remap_pfn_range(vma, vm_start, page_to_pfn(data->pages[i]),PAGE_SIZE, vma->vm_page_prot);vm_start += PAGE_SIZE;}return 0;
}static int ion_begin_cpu_access(struct dma_buf *dmabuf,enum dma_data_direction dir)

}static int ion_end_cpu_access(struct dma_buf *dmabuf,enum dma_data_direction dir)

}static const struct dma_buf_ops exp_dmabuf_ops = {.attach = ion_attach,.detach = ion_detach,.map_dma_buf = ion_map_dma_buf,.unmap_dma_buf = ion_unmap_dma_buf,.release = ion_release,.mmap = ion_mmap,.vmap = ion_vmap,.vunmap = ion_vunmap,.begin_cpu_access = ion_begin_cpu_access,.end_cpu_access = ion_end_cpu_access,
};
static struct dma_buf *ion_alloc(size_t size)
{DEFINE_DMA_BUF_EXPORT_INFO(exp_info);struct dma_buf *dmabuf;struct ion_data *data;int i, npages;npages = PAGE_ALIGN(size) / PAGE_SIZE;data = kmalloc(sizeof(*data) + npages * sizeof(struct page *),GFP_KERNEL);data->npages = npages;for (i = 0; i < npages; i++)data->pages[i] = alloc_page(GFP_KERNEL);exp_info.ops = &exp_dmabuf_ops;exp_info.size = npages * PAGE_SIZE;exp_info.flags = O_CLOEXEC;exp_info.priv = data;dmabuf = dma_buf_export(&exp_info);return dmabuf;
}static long ion_ioctl(struct file *filp, unsigned int cmd, unsigned long arg)
{struct dma_buf *dmabuf;struct ion_allocation_data alloc_data;/* currently just only support ION_IOC_ALLOC ioctl */if (cmd != ION_IOC_ALLOC)return -EINVAL;copy_from_user(&alloc_data, (void __user *)arg, sizeof(alloc_data));dmabuf = ion_alloc(alloc_data.len);alloc_data.fd = dma_buf_fd(dmabuf, O_CLOEXEC);copy_to_user((void __user *)arg, &alloc_data, sizeof(alloc_data));return 0;
}static struct file_operations ion_fops = {.owner   = THIS_MODULE,.unlocked_ioctl   = ion_ioctl,
};static struct miscdevice mdev = {.minor = MISC_DYNAMIC_MINOR,.name = "ion",.fops = &ion_fops,
};static int __init ion_init(void)
{return misc_register(&mdev);
}static void __exit ion_exit(void)
{misc_deregister(&mdev);
}module_init(ion_init);
module_exit(ion_exit);

从上面可以看出，任意大小的参数，在驱动中就是for循环申请页。因为申请的内存不一定时连续物理内存，所以使用sg table .

应用程序

ion_test.c

#include <string.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <errno.h>
#include <fcntl.h>
#include <unistd.h>
#include <sys/types.h>
#include <sys/stat.h>
#include <sys/ioctl.h>struct ion_allocation_data {__u64 len;__u32 heap_id_mask;__u32 flags;__u32 fd;__u32 unused;
};#define PAGE_SIZE 4096int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{int fd;struct ion_allocation_data alloc_data;fd = open("/dev/ion", O_RDWR);alloc_data.len = 3 * PAGE_SIZE;ioctl(fd, ION_IOC_ALLOC, &alloc_data);printf("ion alloc success: size = %llu, dmabuf_fd = %u\n",alloc_data.len, alloc_data.fd);close(fd);return 0;
}

该应用程序通过 ION_IOC_ALLOC ioctl 请求分配了3个 page 的物理 buffer，如果底层驱动分配成功，则会将该 dma-buf 所对应的 fd 返回给应用程序，以便后续执行 mmap 操作或将 fd 传给其它模块。

需要注意的是，这里的3个 pages 是通过3次调用 alloc_page() 来分配的，因此每个 page 之间可能是不连续的，也可以近似的认为该 ion 驱动分配的 buffer 属于 ION_HEAP_TYPE_SYSTEM。如果要分配物理连续的 pages，请使用 alloc_pages() 进行分配。

上面的驱动中，通过变长数组，实现虚拟地址连续，但是物理地址不一定连续的方法。
