Yes, I have already been pointed out on this and will put those as
kernel module parameters in the next version. The device is an IP
block for Intel FPGAs.

(1) Here it may fail.

Please see (1) above.

Here is the comment in the next version of the patch:
The Intel documentation claims "The Descriptor Controller
writes a 1 to the done bit of the status DWORD to indicate
successful completion. The Descriptor Controller also sends
an MSI interrupt for the final descriptor. After receiving
this MSI, host software can poll the done bit to determine
status."
The above could be read like MSI interrupt might be delivered
before the corresponding done bit is set. But in reality it
does not happen at all (or happens really rare). So put here
the done bit polling, just in case.
> rd_done and rd_flags etc..?
rd_flags/wr_flags are updated by the hardware (2) and mapped in as
coherent DMA memory.
rd_done/wr_done are just local variables (3)

I assume you are referring to PCI_BAR in this particular case, right?
If so, this is an excerpt from the documentation that I read like a
BAR the DMA controller is mapped to needs to be configurable:
"When the DMA Descriptor Controller is externally instantiated, these
registers are accessed through a BAR. The offsets must be added to the
base address for the read controller. When the Descriptor Controller
is internally instantiated these registers are accessed through BAR0."
Thank you, Vinod!
