I'm not sure about which flags should ASoC set for the two case we are going to have. I think it should be something like this: unsigned long flags = DMA_CTRL_ACK; if (!substream->runtime->no_period_wakeup) flags |= DMA_PREP_INTERRUPT; I'm not 100% sure of the role of DMA_CTRL_ACK in this case. Or should we only handle the DMA_PREP_INTERRUPT flag, like this: unsigned long flags = 0; if (!substream->runtime->no_period_wakeup) flags |= DMA_PREP_INTERRUPT; What do you think? -- Péter -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-omap" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
