Subject: [PATCH v2] ASoC: soc-generic-dmaengine: Handle DMA channel request failures correctly
Date: Mon, 20 Jul 2026 12:26:18 +0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260720052618.64849-1-phucduc.bui@gmail.com> (raw)
From: bui duc phuc <phucduc.bui@gmail.com>
Currently any dma_request_chan() failure other than -EPROBE_DEFER is
silently ignored, since a missing channel is expected for devices that
only support one DMA direction.
Improve the handling of these failures by:
- reporting failures when a configured DMA channel cannot be requested;
- failing probe if neither playback nor capture obtains a DMA channel,
since the PCM device would be unusable.
Devices that legitimately support only one DMA direction continue to
work as before.
Signed-off-by: bui duc phuc <phucduc.bui@gmail.com>

Changes in v2:
- Update the commit message and title.
- Refine DMA channel request failure handling to match the
dma_request_chan() implementation.
