Hi Jassi,
In current CMDQ driver, mbox_client_txdone() is called to prevent the
blocking of chan->active_req. It is not the real point of CMDQ task
done, so the client driver cannot do any callbacks to its user upstream.
(1) If we don't use mbox_client_txdone(), could you tell us an
alternative way to prevent the blocking of chan->active_req?
And then we can use tx_done when CMDQ task is relly done.
(2) If we use mbox_client_txdone() to prevent the blocking of
chan->active_req, could CMDQ driver just uses self-defined callback
function to notice client driver CMDQ task done?
Thanks,
HS
