Hmm, looking at the driver, sham_update returns 0 immediately if it
just caches data. In a sense, the update is not completed at this
point. Are you saying this is illegal and can't be done?
Once you call the completion function (and returning zero from
the update itself is equivalent to calling the completion function)
the hardware must not touch the request anymore.
Yeah, it is not touching it anymore. All the data has been copied to the
local buffer at this point, and the driver isn't retaining any kind of a
handle to the request itself anymore. It is just that it has not been
processed by the hardware yet.
From my understanding, valid results are expected from the driver
only after ->final is called.
That's because you never implemented export/import :)
Yeah, the flush should do the trick now. Kind of a chicken-egg problem
here. :P How do you see the situation with the above explanation?
