yeah_that_sounds_good :D, i think in_flight would be apt here..

It is after all the amount of bytes cached within the DMA fabric, but I
agree it is a bit awkward.

Recently I tried to come up with something better, but did not went too
far...
dma_cached_bytes?
dma_held_bytes?
in_flight_bytes?
not_in_source_but_not_yet_in_destination_bytes :D ?

I try to come up with something for the initial series.

Sure, I tend to forget that.

this looks okay to me, but not really up for 'cached', better
alternates?

Also we need to update Documentation for this..

[RFC,1/5] dmaengine: Add support for reporting DMA cached data amount

[Peter Ujfalusi]

A DMA hardware can have big cache or FIFO and the amount of data sitting in
the DMA fabric can be an interest for the clients.

For example in audio we want to know the delay in the data flow and in case
the DMA have significantly large FIFO/cache, it can affect the latenc/delay
