The tx_status callback does not report the state of the transfer
beyond complete segments. This causes problems with users such as
ALSA when applications want to know accurately how much data has
been moved.

This patch addes a function tegra_dma_update_residual() to query
the hardware and modify the residual information accordinly. It
takes into account any hardware issues when trying to read the
state, such as delays between finishing a buffer and signalling
the interrupt.

Hello Ben,

Thank you very much for keeping it up. I have couple comments, please see them below.

You could pre-assign ahbptr=0xffffffff and result=residual here, then you could remove all the duplicated assigns below.

The "tmp" variable isn't used anywhere in the code, please remove it.

This doesn't look correct because TRM says "Busy bit gets set as soon as a channel is enabled and gets cleared after transfer completes", hence a cleared BUSY bit means that all transfers are completed and result=residual is incorrect here. Given that there is a check for EOC bit being set below, this hunk should be removed.

Please use udelay(1) because there is no ndelay on arm32 and ndelay(100) is getting rounded up to 1usec. AFAIK, arm64 doesn't have reliable ndelay on Tegra either because timer rate changes with the CPU frequency scaling.

Secondly done=0 isn't a error case, technically this could be the case when tegra_dma_update_residual() is invoked just after starting the transfer. Hence I think this do-while loop and timeout checking aren't needed at all since done=0 is a perfectly valid case.


Altogether seems the tegra_dma_update_residual() could be reduced to:

static unsigned int tegra_dma_update_residual(struct tegra_dma_channel *tdc,
					      struct tegra_dma_sg_req *sg_req,
					      struct tegra_dma_desc *dma_desc,
					      unsigned int residual)
{
	unsigned long status, wcount;

	if (list_is_first(&sg_req->node, &tdc->pending_sg_req))
		return residual;

	if (tdc->tdma->chip_data->support_separate_wcount_reg)
		wcount = tdc_read(tdc, TEGRA_APBDMA_CHAN_WORD_TRANSFER);

	status = tdc_read(tdc, TEGRA_APBDMA_CHAN_STATUS);

	if (!tdc->tdma->chip_data->support_separate_wcount_reg)
		wcount = status;

	if (status & TEGRA_APBDMA_STATUS_ISE_EOC)
		return residual - sg_req->req_len;

	return residual - get_current_xferred_count(tdc, sg_req, wcount);
}

In addition to Dmitry's comments, can you please make sure you run this

I'll check, but last time it was implemented. This seems a backwards step.

this is not checking for an error, it's checking for a possible
inaccurate reading.

I'm not sure if that will work all the time. It took days of testing to
get reliable error data for the cases we're looking for here.

If you'll change reading order of the status / words registers like I
suggested, then there won't be a case for the inaccuracy.

The EOC bit should be set atomically once transfer is finished, you
can't get wrapped around words count and EOC bit not being set.

For oneshot transfer that runs with interrupt being disabled, the words
counter will stop at 0 and the unset BUSY bit will indicate that the
transfer is completed.

Could you please tell exactly what those cases are. I don't see when the
simplified variant could fail, but maybe I already forgot some extra
details about how APB DMA works.

I tested the variant I'm suggesting (with the fixed typos and added
check for the BUSY bit) and it works absolutely fine, audio stuttering
issue is fixed, everything else works too. Please consider to use it for
the next version of the patch if there are no objections.

Actually the BUSY bit checking shouldn't be needed. I think it's a bug
in the driver that it may not enable EOC interrupt and will send a patch
to fix it.

Hello Ben,

I'm going to post a reduced version of the patch that I'm was suggesting
here since it fixes a longstanding problem that I'm experiencing. Any
other changes could be made on top of it later on if needed. Please let
me know if you have any objections, I can wait a bit longer if you're
going to send an updated version of the patch that addresses all of the
comments anytime soon.
