[alsa-devel] [PATCH 00/18] edma/ASoC: dmaengine PCM for AM335x and AM447x

[Peter Ujfalusi]

Hi,

With this series AM335x and AM447x will use the dmaengine PCM for audio. The
daVinci devices will keep using the davinci-pcm for now since I do not have
means to test them but the code is written in a way that they can be switched
to use the edma-pcm easily (DA850/OMAP-L138 has been tested and audio was
working fine).

To be able to use the dmaengine PCM I needed to make changes to the edma code in
arch/arm/common/ and in drivers/dma/ :
Adding support for DMA pause/resume
Possibility to select non default event queue/TC for cyclic (audio) dma
channels: all devices using the eDMA via dmaengine was assigned to the default
EQ/TC (mmc, i2c, spi, etc, and audio). This is not optimal from system
performance point of view since sharing the same EQ/TC can cause latency spikes
for cyclic channels (long DMA transfers for MMC for example).

While debugging the edma to get things sorted out I noticed that the debug was
too verbose and the important information was hidden even when the we did not
asked for verbose dmaengine debug.
I have included some debug cleanups for the edma dmaengine driver also.

On the ASoC side: the series has been tested on AM335x and AM447x. I have report
that DA850/OMAP-L138 works with this series (which boots w/o DT).

Regards,
Peter
