@@ -964,7 +968,7 @@ static int xilinx_dma_calc_copysize(struct xilinx_dma_chan *chan, int size, int done) { size_t copy = min_t(size_t, size - done, - XILINX_DMA_MAX_TRANS_LEN); + chan->xdev->max_buffer_len);hmm why not add max_buffer_len in patch 1 again, and then use default len as XILINX_DMA_MAX_TRANS_LEN and add multiple lengths here :)Sorry, I'm not getting your point. Could you please elaborate the "add multiple lengths here" thing ?IIRC (sorry been travelling and vacation), add chan->xdev->max_buffer_len in patch 1 and initialize it to XILINX_DMA_MAX_TRANS_LEN. Then in subsequent patches update the length.
Ah ok. IMO introducing max_buffer_len seems more related to what 4/7 does (actually getting the max transfer len from DT, thus it is not constant anymore) rather than to what 1/7 does (commonizing the calculation of transfer len as it is).. This is why I've introduced it in 4/7.. .. But if you prefer this way, I'll change this :) .. Maybe we can change 1/7 commit message so that this change looks less off-topic.. But I have not found a very good title yet.. Something like "Prepare for DMA copy size calculation rework" ?
