Yeah, this isn't entirely correct, when the core revision is < 5 then the register-based TX status doesn't actually exist and the firmware always uses the FIFO-based mechanism. > The implication is that the interrupt will only be generated if we use > the last (i.e. #5) DMA controller. As we are only using #3, no > interrupts and handle_irq_status() is dead code. Right, only core revisions 2 and 4 are supported here. johannes
