Subject: [PATCH v2 3/3] dmaengine: dw-axi-dmac: preserve pending pause requests
Date: Mon, 09 Nov 2026 20:06:02 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261109-submit-dw-axi-dma-stop-pause-v1-v2-3-64adc48df793@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20261109-submit-dw-axi-dma-stop-pause-v1-v2-0-64adc48df793@gmail.com>

dma_chan_pause() clears SUSPENDED even when polling times out. Hardware
can set that status after the last poll, including during the final
delay, and the unconditional clear then discards an acknowledgment the
caller never observed. Another channel's interrupt can also consume the
status because the shared IRQ handler clears every channel's status
before taking its lock.

Leave SUSPENDED to the pause and resume paths. Track the suspend request
separately from its acknowledgment so a timeout can be followed by either
a pause retry or a resume. Wait for acknowledgment before clearing the
hardware request, since hardware ignores an earlier clear. If that wait
also times out, return -EAGAIN with the request still pending. Use the
atomic polling helper so an acknowledgment during the final delay is
observed.

A completed transfer is also quiescent, but its completion handler may
still need to advance a cyclic descriptor. Defer that restart while a
pause is pending, and resume it without reprogramming the first LLI.
Track the active descriptor until its completion handler runs so that
resume and issue_pending cannot restart a completed cyclic segment or
reissue a completed noncyclic descriptor while its IRQ is pending.
Start queued work after the active descriptor is retired, respecting the
pause request.

Clear stale suspension status at the start of a new descriptor rather
than at each cyclic restart. Reset the software state after successful
termination and when allocating a channel for a new client.
