From: Yuri Tikhonov Date: Mon, 12 Jan 2009 22:17:20 +0000 (-0700) Subject: dmaengine: fix dependency chaining X-Git-Url: https://git.karo-electronics.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=dd59b8537f6cb53ab863fafad86a5828f1e889a2;p=linux-beck.git dmaengine: fix dependency chaining In dmaengine we track the dependencies between the descriptors using the 'next' pointers of the structure. These pointers are set to NULL as soon as the corresponding descriptor has been submitted to the channel (in dma_run_dependencies()). But, the first 'next' in chain is still remaining set, regardless the fact, that tx->next has been already submitted. This may lead to multiple submissions of the same descriptor. This patch fixes this. Actually, some previous implementation of the xxx_run_dependencies() function already had this fix in place. The fdb..0eaf3 commit, beside the correct things, broke this.
