Yes, but it's not geared towards the hardware I have (Rpi Model 4B) > > The Raspberry Pi 4 is currently not fully supported for VCHIQ in > mainline.

While I am looking into what's the reason behind the hunk, without which the devices cannot get registered... This is not related to the 40bit support for DMA. I remember that it worked without it during the bcm2835-isp development.
Are you implying that I should not use RPi Model 4B for testing ? Because that's the only RPi hardware I own. >> >> Below is the hunk which should resolve the issue. >> >> --- a/drivers/staging/vc04_services/interface/vchiq_arm/vchiq_device.c >> +++ b/drivers/staging/vc04_services/interface/vchiq_arm/vchiq_device.c >> @@ -6,6 +6,7 @@ >> */ >> >> #include <linux/device/bus.h> >> +#include <linux/dma-mapping.h> >> #include <linux/slab.h> >> #include <linux/string.h> >> >> @@ -72,6 +73,12 @@ int vchiq_device_register(struct device *parent, >> const char *name) >> device->dev.type = &vchiq_device_type; >> device->dev.release = vchiq_device_release; >> >> + ret = dma_set_mask_and_coherent(&device->dev, DMA_BIT_MASK(32)); >> + if (ret < 0) { >> + vchiq_device_release(&device->dev); >> + return ret; >> + } >> + >> ret = device_register(&device->dev); >> if (ret) { >> put_device(&device->dev); >> >> It seems we need to include the dma_set_mask_and_coherent() even if >> bcm2835-audio, bcm2835-camera device doesn't do DMA?
