Subject: [PATCH v3] ASoC: soc-generic-dmaengine: Handle DMA channel request failures correctly
Date: Mon, 20 Jul 2026 13:41:31 +0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260720064131.75156-1-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 v3:
 - Drop has_legacy_config, since config->chan_names[] only provides the
   requested channel name and does not indicate legacy DMA mapping.
Changes in v2:
 - Update the commit message and title.
 - Refine DMA channel request failure handling to match the
   dma_request_chan() implementation.
