Hi Dan, I think, there is a problem with your dma_request_channel() / private_candidate() implementation: your current version only tries one channel from a dma device list, which matched capabilities. If this channel is not accepted by the client, you do not try other channels from this device and just go to the next one... Another problem I encountered with my framebuffer is the initialisation order. You initialise dmaengine per subsys_initcall(), whereas the only way to guarantee the order: dmaengine dma-device driver framebuffer when they are all linked into the kernel was to switch dmaengine to arch_initcall, put the dma driver under subsys_initcall, and the framebuffer under a normal module_init / device_initcall. Below is a naive patch, adding two more arguments to private_candidate() is not very elegant, so, this is not an official submission. Feel free to propose a better fix. But if you like, I can make two patches out of this - separating the initialisation priority.
