Hi, thanks for the submission! On Tue, Mar 08, 2016 at 02:23:51AM +0800, Liguo Zhang wrote:
Signal complete() in the i2c irq handler after one transfer done, and then wait_for_completion_timeout() will return, this procedure may cost much time, so only signal complete() when the entire transaction has been completed, it will reduce the entire transaction time.

I wonder. You have less context switches, yes. On the other hand, you likely have bigger interrupt latency because you do more stuff in the interrupt handler. Is it really a gain in the end?
