By 'normal' you mean non-cyclic, right? That doesn't seem correct to do. Once the desc has been marked cyclic by device_prep_dma_cyclic(), you shouldn't treat it like a non-cyclic anymore. > The sequence is following. > device_prep_dma_cyclic() -> set CYCLIC_PREP -> device_issue_pending() -> > Pl330_tasklet() with CYCLIC_PREP -> set CYCLIC_TRIGGER -> PL330 IRQ -> > Pl330_tasklet() with CYCLIC_TRIGGER. "device_issue_pending() ->Pl330_tasklet() with CYCLIC_PREP" is no different from "device_issue_pending() ->Pl330_tasklet() with CYCLIC_TRIGGER" because the list of 'done' xfers would be null yet. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-samsung-soc" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
