I have a board with an RZN1 SoC but I don't have exactly the same setup as Phil (I only have one port with DMA working, while he used two as a loopback device). I tried to reproduce the error with no luck so far. I however verified that there was apparently no performance hit whatsoever due to this change.

I don't know exactly what hardware can suffer from this, hence I decided not to add a Fixes tag given the fact that it was only observed on RZN1 (which was until now not yet supported upstream). > > Reported-by: Phil Edworthy <phil.edworthy@xxxxxxxxxxx> > > Suggested-by: Andy Shevchenko <andriy.shevchenko@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> > > Signed-off-by: Miquel Raynal <miquel.raynal@xxxxxxxxxxx> > > --- > > drivers/dma/dw/core.c | 4 ++++ > > 1 file changed, 4 insertions(+) > > > > diff --git a/drivers/dma/dw/core.c b/drivers/dma/dw/core.c > > index 7ab83fe601ed..2f6183177ba5 100644 > > --- a/drivers/dma/dw/core.c > > +++ b/drivers/dma/dw/core.c > > @@ -862,6 +862,10 @@ static int dwc_terminate_all(struct dma_chan *chan) > > > > clear_bit(DW_DMA_IS_SOFT_LLP, &dwc->flags); > > > > + /* Ensure the last byte(s) are drained before disabling the channel */ > > + if (test_bit(DW_DMA_IS_PAUSED, &dwc->flags)) > > + dwc_chan_resume(dwc, true); > > + > > dwc_chan_pause(dwc, true); > > > > dwc_chan_disable(dw, dwc); > > -- > > 2.27.0 > > > Thanks, Miquèl
