After some IO activity the "PCI-DMA: Out of IOMMU space" message appear. 2.6.28-gentoo-r4 work ok, so it is regression.

It is indeed a regression.

Are these scary-looking messages also present in 2.6.28?

If so, perhaps the ata code is leaking DMA memory on the error-handling path?

Upgrade to 2.6.29-gentoo-r1 (2.6.29.1), problem is still here, can easyly trigger it. I boot with default apperture, 64mb, and while write to usb-hdd get this:

Dmesg fragments:

Apr  3 13:38:46 rngmhpamd sata_nv 0000:00:05.0: PCI-DMA: Out of IOMMU space for 4096 bytes

The bug report has a "dmesg" attachment but I wasn't able to find the "Out of IOMMU space" message in the dmesg. Can that be corrected? I was looking for IDE/SATA errors *before* the IOMMU errors.

But I was surprised to find these bits:
...
Kernel command line: mce=bootlog root=/dev/ram0 real_root=/dev/evms/root init=/linuxrc iommu=allowdac,merge,memaper=3 3w_9xxx.use_msi=1 snd-hda-intel.enable_msi=1 doevms quiet Initializing CPU#0
...
Your BIOS doesn't leave a aperture memory hole
Please enable the IOMMU option in the BIOS setup
This costs you 256 MB of RAM
...

I'm not familiar with iommu= parameter nor the warning about the BIOS. Any comments on that?

thanks,
grant

Do we have any debugging option for dumping the current PCI DMA allocations, find out where it has all gone?

Upgrade to 2.6.29-gentoo-r1 (2.6.29.1), problem is still here, can easyly trigger it. I boot with default apperture, 64mb, and while write to usb-hdd get this:

The bug report has a "dmesg" attachment but I wasn't able to find the "Out of IOMMU space" message in the dmesg.  Can that be corrected? I was looking for IDE/SATA errors *before* the IOMMU errors.

But I was surprised to find these bits:

Thank You, Grant, for Your simple questions! Without "allowdac" after couple of hours testing i cannot reproduce bug! So it is my stupid mistake, i don't understand Why i add this absolutely unusual parameter to boot string. I'm apologize to All off You for this stupid mindfuck. You may close the bug, because it is bug in my damn head.

Thank You, Grant, for Your simple questions!

Welcome!
I was just trying to point out some additional information to folks who might understand the code. I don't in this case but was looking for more clues.

Quoted 5 lines

Without "allowdac" after
couple of hours testing i cannot reproduce bug! So it is my stupid mistake, i don't understand Why i add this absolutely unusual parameter to boot string.

I thought I understood IOMMUs having written code for 4 different implementations.
I don't understand why "allowdac" parameter exists. dma_mask stuff should be handling this already.
Can someone explain *why* (Данила already posted the docs) this parameter exists?
(ie use case that dma_mask APIs don't work.)

Quoted 2 lines

I'm apologize to All off You for this stupid
mindfuck. You may close the bug, because it is bug in my damn head.

My first impression: the bug is either allocdma exists instead of using DMA API (See Documentation/DMA-API.txt) OR the documentation for allocdma is missing warnings about "this could break your system" and clearly specify when it should be used.

hth,

I got "PCI-DMA: Out of IOMMU space" while trying write data to usb or sata hdd before all other error messages. After that usb and sata drives lost. All other noise is attempts to communicate with died devices.

iommu=allowdac,merge,memaper=3

This is from Documentation/x86/x86_64/boot-options.txt iommu=allowdac Im try to avoid DMA bug. May be that not need. allowdac           Allow double-address cycle (DAC) mode, i.e. DMA >4GB. DAC is used with 32-bit PCI to push a 64-bit address in two cycles. When off all DMA over >4GB is forced through an IOMMU or software bounce buffering. merge              Do scatter-gather (SG) merging. memaper[=<order>]  Allocate an own aperture over RAM with size 32MB<<order. (default: order=1, i.e. 64MB)
With default apperture, 64mb, DMA leak very fast, now i have memaper=5, 1 gb, becouse i must do my job and can't rollback to 2.6.28 due strange mysterious problem with forcedeth nics that i can't explain and solve. If solution for DMA leak will not be found, i'm try to fill bugreport about problem with nics.

Dmesg fragments:

Apr  3 13:38:46 rngmhpamd sata_nv 0000:00:05.0: PCI-DMA: Out of IOMMU space for 4096 bytes

The bug report has a "dmesg" attachment but I wasn't able to find the "Out of IOMMU space" message in the dmesg.  Can that be corrected? I was looking for IDE/SATA errors *before* the IOMMU errors.

But I was surprised to find these bits:

I can't turn on CONFIG_IOMMU_LEAK and CONFIG_IOMMU_DEBUG because 2.6.26.1 not have such options in .config. Maybe git kernel have this options? Bug triggered when i try mount sata drive on sata_nv and usb hdd on echi_hcd. In all other cases i have no problem.

Also i have mysterious problem similar to

Once boot 2.6.29 and found DMA bug i'm reboot to old working 2.6.28 and seen that my eth0 and eth1 forcedetch died with "no link during initialization". Restart interfaces, remove insert module don't help.
I'm not change configs, i'm not rebuild old kernel. I'm not touch it at all. Reboot to 2.6.29 and network work. Cold restart won't help, and i not won't reset BIOS. I looked to dmesg 2.6.28 and seen that irqs for forcedetch look different from other 2.6.28 kernel dmesgs. So 2.6.29 do strange things with my machine, and that things live cold restart. I don't know what happens, i can't understand and can't open case and hardreset bios all time when i want return to old working kernel. Can you explain me what wrong?

One of them might cause you problem. As I wrote in the previous mail, we need to know which driver is bad.

1. build a kernel without usb storage or any nics. Then do lots of I/Os for minutes to see if sata_nv is fine.

2. if sata_ntv seems to be fine, build a kernel without any nics (I guess your box can't boot without sata_nv). Then do lots of I/Os for usb storage.

3. If the both is fine, you could have other bad driver (might be nic).

I can't turn on CONFIG_IOMMU_LEAK and CONFIG_IOMMU_DEBUG because 2.6.26.1 not have such options in .config. Maybe git kernel have this options?

2.6.26.1 has these options. Probably you don't enable DEBUG_KERNEL. But the feature is not much useful, as I said.

Wait, you use 2.6.29, right?
