The main concern here for these unit tests is to try and ensure that at all times the state of the device is fully known, so the delays are there to ensure that the device has completely finished all work given to it. The suggestion of having a polling loop to gather completions won't work for all scenarios are it doesn't give us the same degree of control in that we cannot know the exact state of job completion when running each poll - meaning that running tests such as for gathering all completions in one go, or in parts of a fixed size are hard to do. The other alternative is to provide an API in dmadev to await quiescence of a DMA device. This would be a better alternative to having the fixed delays, but means a new API for testing only. I can investigate this for the next version of the patchset but it means more work for driver writers. [This could be perhaps worked around by having dmadev implement a "usleep()" call for any drivers that don't implement the function, which would provide a quicker way for driver writers to test incomplete drivers] Also, if having "large" delays is a concern, I don't think it's a major one. With all delays as usleep(10) - and 10 microseconds should be a long time for a HW device - an test run of an optimized build of DPDK takes ~1.5 seconds for 2 dmadev instances, and a debug build only ~2.5 seconds. Increasing the delay tenfold to 100 usec, brings the optimized test run to <2.5 secs and a debug build run to ~4 seconds i.e. 2 seconds per device. Therefore I don't believe having delays in this code is a real problem other than being a less-elegant solution than a polling-based one. In any case, I'll see about adding an "all-jobs-done" API to dmadev for v2 to remove these delays as much as possible. Regards, /Bruce
