commit 2bef9aed6f0e22391c8d4570749b1acc9bc3981e upstream. On some architectures (e.g. arm64) requests for IO coherent memory may use non-cachable attributes if the relevant device isn't cache coherent. If these pages are then remapped into userspace as cacheable, they may not be coherent with the non-cacheable mappings. In particular this happens with libusb, when it attempts to create zero-copy buffers for use by rtl-sdr (https://github.com/osmocom/rtl-sdr/). On low end arm devices with non-coherent USB ports, the application will be unexpectedly killed, while continuing to work fine on arm machines with coherent USB controllers. This bug has been discovered/reported a few times over the last few years. In the case of rtl-sdr a compile time option to enable/disable zero copy was implemented to work around it. Rather than relaying on application specific workarounds, dma_mmap_coherent() can be used instead of remap_pfn_range(). The page cache/etc attributes will then be correctly set in userspace to match the kernel mapping.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
