From 76507fdfc9b629209ae20cd469da2f6d093a507c Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Robert Jarzmik Date: Sun, 7 Aug 2016 21:01:48 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] dmaengine: pxa_dma: fix hotchain corner case In the case where a descriptor is chained on a running channel, and as explained in the comment in the code 10 lines above, the success of the chaining is ensured either if : - the DMA is still running - or if the chained transfer is completed Unfortunately the transfer completness test was done on the descriptor to which the transfer was chained, and not the transfer being chained at the end, ie. hot-chained. This corner case is extremely hard to trigger, as usually the DMA chain is still running, and the first case takes care of returning success of the hot-chaining. It was seen by hot-chaining several "small transfers" to a running "big transfer", not in a real-life usecase but by testing the robustness of the driver.
