This patch is intended to fix PCI resource mapping in secondary processes using the same base-virtaddr as their primary processes. PCI uses the end of the hugepage memory area to map all resources. [pci_find_max_end_va()] It works for primary processes, but can't be mapped 1:1 by secondary ones, as the same addresses are currently always occupied by shadow memseg lists, which were created with eal_get_virtual_area(NULL, ...). ``` PRIMARY PROCESS 0x6e00e00000 388K rw-s- fbarray_memseg-2048k-1-3 0x6e01000000 16777216K r---- [ anon ] 0x7201000000 16K rw-s- resource0 SECONDARY PROCESS 0x6e00e00000 388K rw-s- fbarray_memseg-2048k-1-3 0x6e01000000 16777216K r---- [ anon ] 0x7201000000 4K rw-s- fbarray_memseg-1048576k-0-0_203213 ``` Fixes: 524e43c2ad9a ("mem: prepare memseg lists for multiprocess sync") Cc: stable@dpdk.org Signed-off-by: Dariusz Stojaczyk Acked-by: Anatoly Burakov --- diff --git a/lib/librte_eal/common/eal_common_memory.c b/lib/librte_eal/common/eal_common_memory.c index 9adbf4105c..e941e5dac6 100644 --- a/lib/librte_eal/common/eal_common_memory.c +++ b/lib/librte_eal/common/eal_common_memory.c @@ -56,7 +56,8 @@ eal_get_virtual_area(void *requested_addr, size_t *size, allow_shrink = (flags & EAL_VIRTUAL_AREA_ALLOW_SHRINK) > 0; unmap = (flags & EAL_VIRTUAL_AREA_UNMAP) > 0; - if (next_baseaddr == NULL && internal_config.base_virtaddr != 0) + if (next_baseaddr == NULL && internal_config.base_virtaddr != 0 && + rte_eal_process_type() == RTE_PROC_PRIMARY) next_baseaddr = (void *) internal_config.base_virtaddr; if (requested_addr == NULL && next_baseaddr != NULL) {
