If a client driver gets to use the DW DMAC engine device tougher
than usual, with occasional DMA-transfers termination and restart, then
the next error can be randomly spotted in the system log:

> dma dma0chan0: BUG: XFER bit set, but channel not idle!

For instance that happens in case of the 8250 UART port driver handling
the looped back high-speed traffic (in my case > 1.5Mbaud) by means of the
DMA-engine interface.

The error happens due to the two-staged nature of the DW DMAC IRQs
handling procedure and due to the critical section break in the meantime.
In particular in case if the DMA-transfer is terminated and restarted:
1. after the IRQ-handler submitted the tasklet but before the tasklet
   started handling the DMA-descriptors in dwc_scan_descriptors();
2. after the XFER completion flag was detected in the
   dwc_scan_descriptors() method, but before the dwc_complete_all() method
   is called
the error denoted above is printed due to the overlap of the last transfer
completion and the new transfer execution stages.

There are two places need to be altered in order to fix the problem.
1. Clear the IRQs in the dwc_chan_disable() method. That will prevent the
   dwc_scan_descriptors() method call in case if the DMA-transfer is
   restarted in the middle of the two-staged IRQs-handling procedure.
2. Move the dwc_complete_all() code to being executed inseparably (in the
   same atomic section) from the DMA-descriptors scanning procedure. That
   will prevent the DMA-transfer restarts after the DMA-transfer completion
   was spotted but before the actual completion is executed.

Fixes: 69cea5a00d31 ("dmaengine/dw_dmac: Replace spin_lock* with irqsave variants and enable submission from callback")
Fixes: 3bfb1d20b547 ("dmaengine: Driver for the Synopsys DesignWare DMA controller")

Hi,

This is the friendly patch-bot of Greg Kroah-Hartman.  You have sent him
a patch that has triggered this response.  He used to manually respond
to these common problems, but in order to save his sanity (he kept
writing the same thing over and over, yet to different people), I was
created.  Hopefully you will not take offence and will fix the problem
in your patch and resubmit it so that it can be accepted into the Linux
kernel tree.

You are receiving this message because of the following common error(s)
as indicated below:

- You have marked a patch with a "Fixes:" tag for a commit that is in an
  older released kernel, yet you do not have a cc: stable line in the
  signed-off-by area at all, which means that the patch will not be
  applied to any older kernel releases.  To properly fix this, please
  follow the documented rules in the
  Documentation/process/stable-kernel-rules.rst file for how to resolve
  this.

If you wish to discuss this problem further, or you have questions about
how to resolve this issue, please feel free to respond to this email and
Greg will reply once he has dug out from the pending patches received
from other developers.

thanks,

greg k-h's patch email bot
