Subject: [PATCH v2 1/8] dmaengine: Add API to combine configuration and preparation (sg and single)
Date: Thu, 18 Dec 2025 10:56:21 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20251218-dma_prep_config-v2-1-c07079836128@nxp.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20251218-dma_prep_config-v2-0-c07079836128@nxp.com>

Previously, configuration and preparation required two separate calls. This
works well when configuration is done only once during initialization.

However, in cases where the burst length or source/destination address must
be adjusted for each transfer, calling two functions is verbose and
requires additional locking to ensure both steps complete atomically.

Add a new API dmaengine_prep_config_single() and dmaengine_prep_config_sg()
and callback device_prep_config_sg() that combines configuration and
preparation into a single operation. If the configuration argument is
passed as NULL, fall back to the existing implementation.

Add a new API dmaengine_prep_config_single_safe() and
dmaengine_prep_config_sg_safe() for re-entrancy, which require driver
implement callback device_prep_config_sg().

change in v2
- add () for function
- use short name device_prep_sg(), remove "slave" and "config". the 'slave'
is reduntant. after remove slave, the function name is difference existed
one, so remove _config suffix.
