[PATCH RESEND] media: omap3isp: Use dma_request_chan() to requesting DMA channel

[PATCH RESEND] media: omap3isp: Use dma_request_chan() to requesting DMA channel

[Peter Ujfalusi]

With the new dma_request_chan() the client driver does not need to look for
the DMA resource and it does not need to pass filter_fn anymore.
By switching to the new API the driver can now support deferred probing
against DMA.

Hi Peter,

Thank you for the patch.

I believe this breaks the OMAP3 ISP driver. dma_request_slave_channel_compat() 
is a superset of dma_request_chan() that will, when called with 
omap_dma_filter_fn, return as a fallback any free channel handled by the OMAP 
DMA engine driver. This feature is actively used by this driver and must be 
preserved.

The fallback to use the filter_fn is used only when booted in legacy
mode or when requesting a channel for non slave DMA operation.
Based on the code in the driver it is handling slave transfers, so it
must have DMA request line coming from somewhere. If that is missing the
driver should not be able to work as it will not start the transfer.

dma_request_chan() is to be used when you want to have slave channel
with DMA request.

If legacy mode needs to be supported then adding the hist DMA request
number to the omap3xxx_sdma_map in arch/arm/mach-omap2/dma.c should be done.
The reason the omap3isp is not in the table is that I could not find any
place where the DMA resource was set (nor the DMA is specified in DT).

I'm unsure how this driver could work w/o DMA request line over a random
(and SW triggered) DMA channel with slave operation. For the slave DMA
you need to have DMA request line.

I see now.
The omap3isp never supposed to get valid DMA request line via
platform_get_resource_byname(), it should never find the "hist" DMA in
the DT data. If it does, the driver would stop working as there is no
DMA request associated with the histogram data reading.

It is a bit misleading that it used dma_request_slave_channel_compat()
for getting the channel.

I think what would be correct is:
dma_cap_mask_t mask;

dma_cap_zero(mask);
dma_cap_set(DMA_SLAVE, mask);
hist->dma_ch = dma_request_chan_by_mask(&mask);

We will get any DMA channel capable of slave configuration, but we will
configure no DMA request number for the channel.

and document this in the driver...

If I remember correctly, the OMAP3 ISP has no dedicated DMA channel is it 
doesn't issue any hardware trigger. It can use any DMA channel, and performs a 
memcpy-like operation from a FIFO exposed through a single register to a 
system memory location.

That's because there's no DMA request number for the OMAP3 ISP :-)

As far as I understand, the DMA channel is software triggered, and the DMA 
engine will just perform the programmed number of transfers, without waiting 
for a hardware trigger.

I believe that should work. It could in theory result in a different behaviour 
as it could return a DMA channel not handled by the OMAP SDMA engine, but I 
don't think that would be an issue.

Yes, that could be the case if we would have more than one DMAs in SoCs
where the omap3isp is used, but we only have sDMA.

The reason why I would like to move the driver to use the generic API is
that my plan is to remove the legacy sDMA support in the future so the
filter_fn is not going to be available outside of the DMAengine driver.

I do believe that this is safe to do in this way and if the IP shows up
somewhere else where we have more than one DMAs - which is unlikely -
I'm sure it can be fixed up, but w/o device it is hard to guess what
needs to be done.
FWIW: if omap3isp shows up where we have sDMA and eDMA we can set the
mask as DMA_SLAVE | DMA_MEMCPY as eDMA does not set both for a channel -
it is either slave or memcpy.
