Hi Vinod,

Thank you for your review!

No, I don't submit multiple descriptors to HW.
So, as you say in the end of this email, I am thinking that I should use virt-dma infrastructure.

I'm not sure about the detail because I reuse it from rcar-dmac.c.
But, after I used virt-dma, I will remove this function, I think.

Thank you for the point. I will remove it.

Thank you for the point. I will fix it. (if this function is needed using virt-dma.)

I'm not sure about the detail because I reuse it from rcar-dmac.c.
However, after I used virt-dma, this may be removed, I guess.

A client driver (especially renesas_usbhs driver) will not submit another
descriptor until it calls dmaengine_tx_status API.

This USB-DMAC has a function to detect a USB specific packet (called short-length-packet).
If the USB-DMAC detects it, the USB-DMAC assumes the USB-DMAC completes the transfer.

For example:
 - A client driver submits 2048 bytes as RX.
 - When a USB controller received 512 + 488 bytes totally,
   the USB-DMAC detected it and completed the transfer.
  - However, a USB controller just knows the bytes of last packet (In this case, 488byte.)
        So, the USB controller driver cannot know that it got how many bytes.
    Therefore, this USB-DMAC driver is computing this bytes.

I'm not sure about the detail, but cppi41.c seems to compute the residue even if it is completed.

I'm not sure about the detail. So, I will remove it.

Also I will remove it.

Thank you for the point. I will fix it.

I see. I will add such a code.

Thank you for the advice!
As I say above, I will try to use the virt-dma infrastructure.
