The choice between whether a physical or a logical channel is used is
not something that is configurable via dma_slave_config().  And
d40_config_write() only needs that information, and that information is
available in dma_request_channel().  Therefore no more information
relevant to d40_config_write() will be obtained in dma_slave_config().
Hence d40_config_write() can be called in dma_request_channel().

Okay, I see what you're saying.

So I need to devise another way, as this function cannot be called
here either. Using the dmaengine API, allocating a channel and
configuring it are to be completed using different calls. Using the
API correctly, there is no way the driver can setup the channel
with all of the relevant information during allocation time.

The steps are as follows:

dma_request_channel() - here we only allot a channel number and
allocate the appropriate resources for the
channel.

dma_slave_config()- this is where we're meant to configure the
channel, so d40_config_write() needs to be
called here, as only dma_slave_config() will
carry the information required so as
d40_*_cfg() can make the correct decisions.

At the moment calling dma_slave_config() ends up calling
d40_set_runtime_config(), which, taking into consideration what you've
been saying about possibly cutting off other logical channels, is
probably not what we want. I'll take a look at the dmaengine API and
see if there's a more appropriate way to do that.

Thanks again for your input Rabin, it's invaluable.

Kind regards,
Lee

This function does basic initial configuration which is linked to
whether the channel is pysical or logical -- something that is not being
allowed to be runtime configured, so the place to call this function is
here.  Furthermore, it clears the SSLNK/SDLNK which has to be done here,
when the phy channel is first allocated.

According to the DMA documentation allocating a channel and configuring
it are two separate actions. By removing the configuration code from the
channel allocation path we lighten the burden on the information required to
successfully allocate a channel.
