[PATCH 1/7] dmaengine: edma: fix two faults which happen with the 8250_dma user

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



The rx path of the 8250_dma user in the RX-timeout case:
- it starts the RX transfer
- if the rx-timeout interrupt occures, it dmaengine_pause() the transfer
- step two is dmaengine_terminate_all() on this channel.
- based on dmaengine_tx_status() it learns the number of transfered
  bytes.
- the rx interrupt occures, it does not start the RX-transfer because
  according to dmaengine_tx_status() the status of the current transfer
  is still DMA_IN_PROGRESS because the earlier dmaengine_terminate_all()
  did not reset this.
- on rx-timeout it invokes dmaengine_pause() again. This time, it
  segfaults because the channel has no descriptor yet.

To make the upper case work better, this patch adds dma_cookie_complete()
to complete the cookie. Also it adds is an additional check for echan->edesc
in case the channel has no descriptor assigned.
