Thanks Felix. This works fine on the 83xx DMA controller. When you have
a chance, can you add "#define DEBUG 1" as the first line of
drivers/dma/fsldma.c and then rerun your test with:
modprobe dmatest threads_per_chan=2 iterations=1 max_channels=1
And send me the dmesg output.
I don't quite understand the difference between links and lists in the
85xx controller yet. I'll work my way through the datasheet this morning
and send out a fixed patch.
Thanks very much for running the tests!
Ira
