Subject: [PATCH 2/3] dma: mxs-dma: Track number of irqs for callback
Date: Thu, 26 Sep 2013 17:06:35 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1380207996-27257-3-git-send-email-mpa@pengutronix.de> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1380207996-27257-1-git-send-email-mpa@pengutronix.de>

Currently there is one tasklet scheduled for all interrupts between two
mxs_dma_tasklet calls for one channel. With more than one interrupts,
the tasklet is only called once.

Using low latency audio playback, can lead to problems. When using
sound/soc/soc-dmaengine-pcm.c, the dmaengine_pcm_dma_complete relies on
being called for each interrupt that occures. This function is the
callback which is called from the mxs-dma driver in mxs_dma_tasklet.
This can cause wrong position counters and can lead to a wrong DMA
buffer offset. In this situation the DMA engine and pcm lib may write
and read from the same buffer segment.

This patch adds a locked per-channel irq counter and calls the callback
function in a loop for irq-counter times.
