This patch changes the semantics of non-blocking reads so that a hardware fifo flush is triggered if the available data in the device buffer is less then the requested size. This allows userspace to accurately generate hardware fifo flushes, by doing a non-blocking read with a size greater then the sum of the device buffer and hardware fifo size. Signed-off-by: Octavian Purdila <octavian.purdila@xxxxxxxxx> --- This is the second iteration of the patch that allows userspace to accurately generate flush events.
