Yes, it indeed seems to be the case (comment for arm_dma_unmap_page(): "After this call, reads by the CPU to the buffer are guaranteed to see whatever the device wrote there.". > > dma_sync_single_for_cpu(dma_chan->device->dev, dest_dma, > > PAGE_SIZE, DMA_FROM_DEVICE); > > + dma_unmap_page(dma_chan->device->dev, dest_dma, PAGE_SIZE, > > + DMA_FROM_DEVICE); > > Ditto. > > Also, the mv_xor_memcpy_self_test() function not only dma_map_single() > the destination buffer, but also the source buffer.

Those get released by the mv_xor_run_tx_complete_actions() callback. I will follow up with an updated patch. Regards, Lubo
