PATCH v3 1/1 dmaengine: mxs-dma: add dma support for i.MX23/28

This patch adds dma support for Freescale MXS-based SoC i.MX23/28, including apbh-dma and apbx-dma.

* apbh-dma and apbx-dma are supported in the driver as two mxs-dma instances.

* apbh-dma is different between mx23 and mx28, hardware version register is used to differentiate.

* mxs-dma supports pio function besides data transfer. The driver uses dma_data_direction DMA_NONE to identify the pio mode, and steals sgl and sg_len to get pio words and numbers from clients.

* mxs dmaengine has some very specific features, like sense function and the special NAND support (nand_lock, nand_wait4ready). These are too specific to implemented in generic dmaengine driver.

* The driver refers to imx-sdma and only a single descriptor is statically assigned to each channel.

any reason why you are using tasklet? Since these kind of DMA operations need very fast and efficient interrupt handling, I feel the threaded irq are the best approach?

would it be possible for you to avoid these magic number, will help you when you add more controllers...

shouldn't you be servicing this request. The whole idea for having multiple descriptors is that client can have multiple requests and submits when the situation warrants so. This doesn't mean submission of transaction, which should be done using submit()

PATCH v3 1/1 dmaengine: mxs-dma: add dma support for i.MX23/28

Hi Vinod,

Thanks for the review.

Quoted 32 lines · Vinod
Quoted 29 lines · Shawn Guo

This patch adds dma support for Freescale MXS-based SoC i.MX23/28, including apbh-dma and apbx-dma.

* apbh-dma and apbx-dma are supported in the driver as two mxs-dma instances.

* apbh-dma is different between mx23 and mx28, hardware version register is used to differentiate.

* mxs-dma supports pio function besides data transfer. The driver uses dma_data_direction DMA_NONE to identify the pio mode, and steals sgl and sg_len to get pio words and numbers from clients.

* mxs dmaengine has some very specific features, like sense function and the special NAND support (nand_lock, nand_wait4ready). These are too specific to implemented in generic dmaengine driver.

* The driver refers to imx-sdma and only a single descriptor is statically assigned to each channel.

can you please use consistent spacing here...

I thought it's a little bit easier to read these BM/BP defined against the register HW_......

any reason why you are using tasklet? Since these kind of DMA operations need very fast and efficient interrupt handling, I feel the threaded irq are the best approach?

There was some discussion on this.

Magic number?

Define macro instead?

would it be possible for you to avoid these magic number, will help you when you add more controllers...

I really do not see the possibility to add more controllers into this driver, but I can define macro instead if you are uncomfortable with them.

shouldn't you be servicing this request. The whole idea for having multiple descriptors is that client can have multiple requests and submits when the situation warrants so. This doesn't mean submission of transaction, which should be done using submit()

It does not support multiple descriptors.

Hmmm, going back to earlier comment and thinking on this again, any reason why you choose to do it this way. Wont it be nicer to have multiple descriptors?

None of the mxs dma client drivers necessarily needs multiple descriptors support, so I chose to implement the driver in a simplified way with the reference to imx-sdma driver.

No exit??

No exit. It's pretty common for dma driver, as it's a fundamental block and should be built-in other than module.

PATCH v3 1/1 dmaengine: mxs-dma: add dma support for i.MX23/28

Quoted 63 lines · Shawn Guo

Hi Vinod,

Thanks for the review.

Quoted 32 lines · Vinod

This patch adds dma support for Freescale MXS-based SoC i.MX23/28, including apbh-dma and apbx-dma.

* apbh-dma and apbx-dma are supported in the driver as two mxs-dma instances.

* apbh-dma is different between mx23 and mx28, hardware version register is used to differentiate.

* mxs-dma supports pio function besides data transfer. The driver uses dma_data_direction DMA_NONE to identify the pio mode, and steals sgl and sg_len to get pio words and numbers from clients.

* mxs dmaengine has some very specific features, like sense function and the special NAND support (nand_lock, nand_wait4ready). These are too specific to implemented in generic dmaengine driver.

* The driver refers to imx-sdma and only a single descriptor is statically assigned to each channel.

any reason why you are using tasklet? Since these kind of DMA operations need very fast and efficient interrupt handling, I feel the threaded irq are the best approach?

Quoted 3 lines

There was some discussion on this.

http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/linux-arm-kernel/2011-February/041251.html

Well in that case you are calling the callback from irq handler which is not so good. The tasklet is other extreme (slow). Given that this is also intended for audio I am not sure if calling period elapsed from tasklet callback will not cause any audio over/underruns, last I tried it used to break quite often in stressed situations.
A threaded irq gives you a kernel thread for processing and calling the callback but doesnt block your irq handler.

would it be possible for you to avoid these magic number, will help you when you add more controllers...

Quoted 3 lines

I really do not see the possibility to add more controllers into this driver, but I can define macro instead if you are uncomfortable with them.

Thats today, how about 2-3 years down the line when you have similar controllers for future rev of this. Writing new driver for next gen in not a good idea

Nevertheless, the DMA engine API specifies that callbacks shall be called from tasklet context.

Note also that the DMA engine API is supposed to work as follows:

1. You submit DMA jobs to it.
2. The DMA engine starts the first job
3. When the first job is complete, it retires it to a retired list and marks the tasklet to run
4. If there is another job waiting, the DMA engine starts the next job
5. Repeat 3 until no further jobs are queued

The tasklet then processes the list of retired jobs, cleaning them up and calling their callbacks.

So the way to efficiently handle audio is to initially submit several 'period' sized buffers for the DMA engine. As each buffer completes, you call snd_pcm_elapsed() to tell ALSA that a period has finished and submit the next buffer. As there's always several buffers submitted, the DMA engine never waits for the callback to complete. And ALSA is capable of handling latency in snd_pcm_elapsed().

Russel,
agree with you on this. But in case you have few periods say 2 and small period sizes (10ms), or similar scenarios where client is waiting to do something (process data) on callback notification, faster the callback better it is.

I know DMA engine species callback to be called from tasklet context, but do we need this for slave-dma or not? If this is posing some limitation then I am okay to discuss on ways to improve :)

Thoughts??

The API is the API. If you want to change it then all slave DMA engine drivers need changing otherwise things will go wrong when we mix DMA engines with slave devices.

We have APIs to ensure that individual chunks of code can be kept modular and interact correctly with each other. If implementations start doing different things then they should stop using the API and create a new API, or propose a change to the API.

That depends whether you want to get into a recursive loop of submitting a request to a DMA engine, only to have it call your completion callback, you submit a new request, it calls your completion callback, etc.

Anyway, I believe that the issue you're referring to is imaginary - there are people who have used the DMA engine API with ALSA with callbacks happening in interrupt context and it works for them, so there's no theorectical reason why it can't work for you.

10ms is not a small period size. Remember that you'll get an interrupt from the DMA engine, which will flag the tasklet to be run. On exiting from that interrupt, the softirq state will be checked, and it'll find that the tasklet is waiting to run. It will run it at that point. No waiting around for the next timer interrupt or anything silly like that.
