From: Kuninori Morimoto <kuninori.morimoto.gx@xxxxxxxxxxx> We need to clear channel register in error case as recovery. The channel is already stopped in such case, thus we don't need to call rcar_dmac_chan_halt() before clearing. rcar_dmac_chan_halt() will clear register and confirm DE bit. But it will be failed because channel is already stopped in error case. In other words, we shouldn't call it then. // This patch started to use C++ style comment out // because it is recent Linus request Reported-by: Hiroki Negishi <hiroki.negishi.bx@xxxxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Kuninori Morimoto <kuninori.morimoto.gx@xxxxxxxxxxx> Reviewed-by: Hiroki Negishi <hiroki.negishi.bx@xxxxxxxxxxx> --- drivers/dma/sh/rcar-dmac.c | 8 +++++++- 1 file changed, 7 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/drivers/dma/sh/rcar-dmac.c b/drivers/dma/sh/rcar-dmac.c index 279c930..35d7a16 100644 --- a/drivers/dma/sh/rcar-dmac.c +++ b/drivers/dma/sh/rcar-dmac.c @@ -1525,7 +1525,13 @@ static irqreturn_t rcar_dmac_isr_channel(int irq, void *dev) chcr = rcar_dmac_chan_read(chan, RCAR_DMACHCR); if (chcr & RCAR_DMACHCR_CAE) { - rcar_dmac_chan_halt(chan); + struct rcar_dmac *dmac = dev_get_drvdata(chan->chan.device->dev); + + // We don't need to call rcar_dmac_chan_halt() + // because channel is already stopped in error case. + // We need to clear register and check DE bit as recovery. + rcar_dmac_write(dmac, RCAR_DMACHCLR, 1 << chan->index); + rcar_dmac_chcr_de_barrier(chan); reinit = true; goto spin_lock_end; } -- 2.7.4
