I was talking about something along these lines (not tested):

I wonder why you don't submit this yourself.

You did not define dst_bursts nor src_bursts.

The maxburst may be as big as 4Kibytes, then, I am not sure that this
code will work!

Yes, I know that the burst size is always a power of 2.
The best way to check it would be to change the {src,dts}_maxburst to a
bitmap of the possible bursts as 0x0d for 1,4 and 8 bytes. But this
asks for a lot of changes...

I thought you were the one who cared. You asked for what I had in
mind, here it is.

To be honest, I'm not really a big fan of those tree wide changes
without any way to maintain compatibility. It ends up in a single,
huge patch if we want to maintain bisectability that just isn't
reviewable.

Looking at the dmaengine API, I believe we got it wrong.

max_burst in dma_slave_config denotes the largest amount of data
a single transfer should be, as described in dmaengine.h:

 * @src_maxburst: the maximum number of words (note: words, as in
 * units of the src_addr_width member, not bytes) that can be sent
 * in one burst to the device. Typically something like half the
 * FIFO depth on I/O peripherals so you don't overflow it. This
 * may or may not be applicable on memory sources.
 * @dst_maxburst: same as src_maxburst but for destination target
 * mutatis mutandis.

The DMA engine driver should be free to select whatever burst size
that doesn't exceed this. So for max_burst = 4, the driver can select
burst = 4 for controllers that do support it, or burst = 1 for those
that don't, and do more bursts.

This also means we can increase max_burst for the audio codec, as
the FIFO is 64 samples deep for stereo, or 128 samples for mono.


If we agree on the above I can send some patches for this.

That's fine to me, but this does not solve the main problem which is
how/where are defined the possible bursts of a SoC.

Not a single transfer but smallest transaction within a transfer of a
block. So dmaengines transfer data in bursts from source to destination,
this parameter decides the size of that bursts

Nope, the client configures these parameters and dmaengine driver
validates and programs

Beware that higher bursts means chance of underrun of FIFO. This value
is selected with consideration of power and performance required. Lazy
allocation would be half of FIFO size..

Right.

Shouldn't we just name it "burst_size" then if it's meant to be what
the client specifically asks for?

My understanding is that the client configures its own parameters,
such as the trigger level for the DRQ, like raise DRQ when level < 1/4
FIFO depth, request maxburst = 1/4 or 1/2 FIFO depth, so as not to
overrun the FIFO. When the DRQ is raised, the DMA engine will do a
burst, and after the burst the DRQ would be low again, so the DMA
engine will wait. So the DMA engine driver should be free to
program the actual burst size to something less than maxburst, shouldn't
it?

You mean underrun if its the source right? So the client setting maxburst
should take the DRQ trigger level into account for this.

Well if for some reason we program lesser than than max it would work
technically. But a larger burst wont work at all, so thats why maxburst is
significant.

Yup but not more that max..
