Let me reiterate here again. The fact that you are seeing the dmaengine warnings is due to function drivers not releasing the channels properly. It is not the job of the DWC driver to release the channels. The channels are requested by the function drivers [1] and they _should_ release them when the channels are no longer required. I know that the PCI_EPF_TEST driver is not doing so and so you are seeing the warnings. But I do not have a device to test that function driver. Qcom platforms use a dedicated function driver and that releases the channels when it gets the LINK_DOWN event from EPC [2]. So my conclusion is that the issue is there even without this series. If you still want me to fix the EPF_TEST driver, I can submit a change, but someone has to test it. - Mani [1] https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/tree/drivers/pci/endpoint/functions/pci-epf-test.c#n229 [2] https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/tree/drivers/pci/endpoint/functions/pci-epf-mhi.c#n563 > Reading the patch, it appears that (at least some) tegra and > qcom boards currently causes a whole system hang, which IIUC, > renders those boards unusable. > > So perhaps the new issues introduced by this series is preferable > to a whole system hang. > > As such, I can understand the urgency to merge this series. > However, at the very least, I think that it might be worth amending > the commit message to mention that this will currently not deregister > the dma device in a clean way, leading to e.g. superfluous entries in > /sys/class/dma/ and debugfs warnings being printed to dmesg. > > > Kind regards, > Niklas -- மணிவண்ணன் சதாசிவம்
