+/* GOLDFISH DMA
+ *
+ * Goldfish DMA is an extension to the pipe device
+ * and is designed to facilitate high-speed RAM->RAM
+ * transfers from guest to host.
+ *
+ * Interface (guest side):
+ *
+ * The guest user calls goldfish_dma_alloc (ioctls)
+ * and then mmap() on a goldfish pipe fd,
+ * which means that it wants high-speed access to
+ * host-visible memory.
+ *
+ * The guest can then write into the pointer
+ * returned by mmap(), and these writes
+ * become immediately visible on the host without BQL
+ * or otherweise context switching.
+ *
+ * dma_alloc_coherent() is used to obtain contiguous
+ * physical memory regions, and we allocate and interact
+ * with this region on both guest and host through
+ * the following ioctls:
+ *
+ * - LOCK: lock the region for data access.
+ * - UNLOCK: unlock the region. This may also be done from the host
+ * through the WAKE_ON_UNLOCK_DMA procedure.
+ * - CREATE_REGION: initialize size info for a dma region.
+ * - GETOFF: send physical address to guest drivers.
+ * - (UN)MAPHOST: uses goldfish_pipe_cmd to tell the host to
+ * (un)map to the guest physical address associated
+ * with the current dma context. This makes the physically
+ * contiguous memory (in)visible to the host.
+ *
+ * Guest userspace obtains a pointer to the DMA memory
+ * through mmap(), which also lazily allocates the memory
+ * with dma_alloc_coherent. (On last pipe close(), the region is freed).
+ * The mmaped() region can handle very high bandwidth
+ * transfers, and pipe operations can be used at the same
+ * time to handle synchronization and command communication.
