I've fixed the problem that's been keeping me from using anything newer than 1.4.1 now. I tracked down the problem checkin, it's the big reorg of nextdma.c between 1.19 and 1.20. It didn't introduce a new bug but it activated a check which wasn't activated before. It's the is-the-limit-in-the-right-window-check which was ifdeffed before because some DMA-regs would sometimes have strange values. I think I've fixed the DMA-reg stuff for now: at the end of nextdma_intr, when the csr is poked to make DMA do something, I think the check for the ENABLE bit introduces a race condition. I fixed this by unconditionally setting DMACSR_SETENABLE, this seems to work and also makes the code more readable. I've also tried setting DMACSR_SETSUPDATE unconditionally and this also works well, but I don't know what it implies. Unless you have reasons to not set SUPDATE all the time, I'd suggest making this change as well, it makes the code cleaner and faster... I've tested this patch and it does stop the panics, although I don't think setting SUPDATE all the tima as he suggests is a good idea. The "SUPDATE" bit implies a single update (i.e. the end of a dma chain.) |
