Okay, in that case your can consider below: 1. dmaengine asserts error interrupt 2. Driver receives and mark's the txn as error 3. Driver completes the txn and intimates the client. No further submissions. Drop the locks before calling callback, as subsequent processing by client maybe in callback thread. 4. Client invokes status and you can return error 5. On error, client calls terminate_all. You can reset channel, free all descriptors in the active, pending and completed lists 6. Client prepares new txn and so on..
