What if the buffer is just too big? Looks like this would loop for ever.
DMA is started, so link_pos get updated and we keep reading it. Since its DMA a big buffer will get done fairly soon.
No, two separate questions there - what if the buffer is bigger than the maximum size (it looked like there was one) and what about error handling (if some clock gets stopped and we don't transfer data for example)?
Okay got it. So for former, yes code doesn't handle it, we should split it up in that case or error out, will add that.
On latter one, the error handling in general would be beefed up but specifically since this is memory copy I am not expecting timeout. If clock is gone then whole audio cluster is gone bonkers so even simple read registers will fail.
Thanks
