sertion mappings. It happens that the drm drivers for a number of gpus relied on this being broken. Currently the driver only inserted VRAM mappings into the tracking table when they came from the kernel, and userspace mappings never landed in the table. This led to a regression where all the mapping end up as UC instead of WC now. I've considered a number of solutions but since this needs to be fixed in fixes and not next, and some of the solutions were going to introduce overhead that hadn't been there before I didn't consider them viable at this stage. These mainly concerned hooking into the TTM io reserve APIs, but these API have a bunch of fast paths I didn't want to unwind to add this to. The solution I've decided on is to add a new API like the arch_phys_wc APIs (these would have worked but wc_del didn't take a range), and use them from the drivers to add a WC compatible mapping to the table for all VRAM on those GPUs. This means we can then create userspace mapping that won't get degraded to UC. v1.1: use CONFIG_X86_PAT + add some comments in io.h Cc: Toshi Kani <toshi.kani@hp.com> Cc: Borislav Petkov <bp@alien8.de> Cc: H.
