Thanks Vinod for reviewing code.
I am removing the code from this thread which is not require. Only keeping code surrounding our discussion.

all of these should be namespaced.
APB and AHB are fairly generic names.
Fine, then I will go as APB_DMA_NR_DESC_xxx and APB_DMA_NR_REQ_xxx

I dont understand why you would need to keep track of these?
You get a request for DMA. You have properties of transfer. You prepare
you descriptors and then submit.
Why would you need to create above modes and remember them?
I am allowing multiple desc requests in dma through prep_slave and prep_cyclic. So when dma channel does not have any request then it can set its mode as NONE. Once the desc is requested the mode is set based on request. This mode will not get change until all dma request done and if new request come to dma channel, it checks that it should not conflict with older mode. The engine is configured in these mode and will change only when all transfer completed.

+     bool                            cb_due;
what are these two for, seems redundant to me

I am reusing the desc once the transfer completed from that desc, not freeing it memory. The ack_reqd tells that client need to ack that desc so that it can be reused. So this flag tells that client need to ack that desc. This is to track the flag DMA_CTRL_ACK which is passed by client in prep_slave_xxx.

cb_due is having different purpose. then ack. Once dma transfer completes, it schedules the tasklet and set the cb_due as callback pending. Before tasklet get schedule, if again transfer completes and re-enter into isr then it wil check that desc callback is pending or not and based on that it queued it on the callback list.

pls follow single convention for naming in driver eithe xxx_tegra_yyy or
tegra_xxx_yyy... BUT not both!
Sure, i will do it.

kernel convention is kzalloc(sizeof(*dma_desc),....
yes I will do it, I missed this cleanup.

sorry I dont like this jumping and returning for two lines of code.
Makes much sense to return from here.
Then goto will be replace as
spin_unlock_irqrestore()
return.
and all three places.
I will do if it is OK,

+static void tegra_dma_desc_done_locked(struct tegra_dma_channel *tdc,
+             struct tegra_dma_desc *dma_desc)
+{
+     if (dma_desc->ack_reqd)
+             list_add_tail(&dma_desc->node,&tdc->wait_ack_dma_desc);
what does ack_reqd mean?
Client need to ack this desc before reusing it.

Do you ahve unlocked version of this function, name suggests so...
Did not require the locked version of function. Will remove the locked and add in comment.

+     else
+             list_add_tail(&dma_desc->node,&tdc->free_dma_desc);
+}
+
+static struct tegra_dma_sg_req *tegra_dma_sg_req_get(
+             struct tegra_dma_channel *tdc)
in this and other functions, you have used goto to unlock and return.
Rather than that why don't you simplify code by calling these while
holding lock

We are allocating memory also and that's why it is there.
But I can make it because I am callocating memory as GFP_ATOMIC.
However if the function call dma_async_tx_descriptor_init() can happen in atomic context i.e. calling spin_lock_init() call.

+                     }
+                     dma_cookie_complete(&dma_desc->txd);
does this make sense. You are marking an aborted descriptor as complete.
If I dont call the the complete cookie of that channel will not get updated and on query, it will return as PROGRESS.
I need to update the dma channel completed cookie.

+     if (list_empty(&tdc->pending_sg_req)) {
+             dev_err(tdc2dev(tdc),
+                     "%s(): Dma is running without any req list\n",
+                     __func__);
this is just waste of real estate and very ugly. Move them to 1/2 lines.

Let me see if I can save something here.

+             list_del(&dma_desc->cb_node);
+
+             callback = dma_desc->txd.callback;
+             callback_param = dma_desc->txd.callback_param;
+             dma_desc->cb_due = false;
+             if (callback)
+                     callback(callback_param);
You should mark the descriptor as complete before calling callback.
Also tasklet is supposed to move the next pending descriptor to the
engine, I dont see that happening here?
It is there. I am calling dma_cookie_complete from handle_once_dma_done() which get called from ISR. In cyclic mode, I am not calling dma_cookie_complete() until it is aborted (for update the complete cookie) but cyclic/non-cyclic case I am calling callback.

+     /* Call callbacks if was pending before aborting requests */
+     while (!list_empty(&cb_dma_desc_list)) {
+             dma_desc  = list_first_entry(&cb_dma_desc_list,
+                             typeof(*dma_desc), cb_node);
+             list_del(&dma_desc->cb_node);
+             callback = dma_desc->txd.callback;
+             callback_param = dma_desc->txd.callback_param;
again, callback would be called from tasklet, so why would it need to be
called from here , and why would this be pending.
What happen if some callbacks are pending as tasklet does not get scheduled and meantime, the dma terminated (specially in multi-core system)?
Should we ignore all callbacks in this case?
