Both buffer Transfer Length (TLEN if any) and transfer size have to be
aligned on burst size (burst beats*bus width).

FWIW, doesn't that whole loop come down to just:

	burst_len = min(ffs(tlen | buf_len), max_burst * width);

No sure it ends as expected. or I miss something or don't understand this statement
I tried with "relevant value" : i.e. best_burst = 32, Tlen=128(default) and
buf_len = 64, width= 4. This statements gets me something wrong output => 7
instead of 16 * 4.
I doubt :)

Heh, seems I confused myself halfway through and started thinking max_burst and width were the exponents x rather than the values 2^x...

A more representative guess should be:

	min(1 << __ffs(tlen | buf_len), max_burst * width);

but the general point I was trying to make is that a loop checking whether the bottom n bits of something are zero for different values of n is unnecessary when n can simply be calculated directly*.

Robin.


* in the case of this "just the lowest set bit" idiom there's also the shift-free ((x & (x - 1)) ^ x), but as well as being unreadable it's generally less efficient than (1 << __ffs(x)) for most modern ISAs.
