Subject: [PATCH 03/11] accel: ethosu: Ensure cmd stream ends with a stop op
Date: Thu, 27 Aug 2026 15:33:02 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260827-ethosu-fixes-v1-3-346f9ea8791c@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260827-ethosu-fixes-v1-0-346f9ea8791c@kernel.org>
While the QSIZE register setting should prevent an out of bounds access
of the command stream, it is not clear whether the h/w generates an
interrupt in this case as is required (to prevent a timeout). As a stop op
is expected end of the command stream, let's just ensure it is present. A
stop op in the middle of the command stream also makes no sense.
Fixes: 5a5e9c0228e6 ("accel: Add Arm Ethos-U NPU driver")
