Subject: [PATCH v5 01/10] dmaengine: dw-edma: Move control field update of DMA link to the last step
Date: Thu, 09 Jul 2026 11:33:30 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260709-edma_ll-v5-1-e199053d4300@nxp.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260709-edma_ll-v5-0-e199053d4300@nxp.com>
From: Frank Li <Frank.Li@nxp.com>
The control field in a DMA link list entry must be updated as the final
step because it includes the CB bit, which indicates whether the entry is
ready. Add dma_wmb() to ensure the correct memory write ordering.
Currently the driver does not update DMA link entries while the DMA is
running, so no visible failure occurs. However, fixing the ordering now
prepares the driver for supporting link entry updates during DMA operation.
