Keep a size limited list with error cookies and flush them in terminate all?
I think so, terminate_all anyway cleans up the channel. Btw what is the
behaviour on error? Do you terminate or somthing else?
On error, I flush all outstanding transactions with an error code and I reset
the channel. After the reset, the DMA channel is functional again. The client
doesn't need to shutdown anything.
You mean from the client context or driver?
The client doesn't need to call device_free_chan_resources and device_terminate_all
to be specific. Client can certainly call these if it needs to but it is not
required to recover the channel.
You didn't answer my question!

On error you said you flush, so who does that?
After the reset in error condition, the client can continue issuing new requests
with tx_submit and device_issue_pending as usual.
