[ Upstream commit ab2bf6d4c0a0152907b18d25c1b118ea5ea779df ]

Propagate the return value of of_dma_controller_register() in probe()
instead of ignoring it.

[ Upstream commit 48278a72fce8a8d30efaedeb206c9c3f05c1eb3f ]

checkpatch.pl --strict reports a WARNING in dw-axi-dmac-platform.c:

  WARNING: void function return statements are not generally useful
  FILE: drivers/dma/dw-axi-dmac/dw-axi-dmac-platform.c

According to Linux kernel coding style [Documentation/process/
coding-style.rst], explicit "return;" statements at the end of void
functions are redundant and should be omitted. The function will
automatically return upon reaching the closing brace, so the extra
statement adds unnecessary clutter without functional benefit.

This patch removes the superfluous "return;" statement in
dw_axi_dma_set_hw_channel() to comply with kernel coding standards and
eliminate the checkpatch warning.

[ Upstream commit ee66bc29578391c9b48523dc9119af67bd5c7c0f ]

During the device remove process, the device is reset, causing the
configuration registers to go back to their default state, which is
zero. As the driver is checking if the event log support was enabled
before deallocating, it will fail if a reset happened before.

Do not check if the support was enabled, the check for 'idxd-&gt;evl'
being valid (only allocated if the HW capability is available) is
enough.

If reporting errors to the event log is not supported by the hardware,
and an error that causes Function Level Reset (FLR) is received, the

Also, only try to free the event log if it was properly allocated.

[ Upstream commit 2e7b5cf72e51c9cf9c8b75190189c757df31ddd9 ]

Configure only the requested channel when a fixed channel is specified
to avoid modifying other channels unintentionally.

Fix parameter configuration when a fixed DMA channel is requested on
i.MX9 AON domain and i.MX8QM/QXP/DXL platforms. When a client requests
a fixed channel (e.g., channel 6), the driver traverses channels 0-5
and may unintentionally modify their configuration if they are unused.

This leads to issues such as setting the `is_multi_fifo` flag unexpectedly,
causing memcpy tests to fail when using the dmatest tool.

Only affect edma memcpy test when the channel is fixed.

ida_alloc() and ida_free() should be preferred to the deprecated
ida_simple_get() and ida_simple_remove().

This is less verbose.

Note that the upper limit of ida_simple_get() is exclusive, but the one of
ida_alloc_range() is inclusive. Sothis change allows one more device.

MINORMASK is ((1U &lt;&lt; MINORBITS) - 1), so allowing MINORMASK as a maximum value
makes sense. It is also consistent with other "ida_.*MINORMASK" and
"ida_*MINOR()" usages.

[ Upstream commit a17ce4bc6f4f9acf77ba416c36791a15602e53aa ]

A single AXIDMA controller can have one or two channels. When it has two
channels, the reset for both are tied together: resetting one channel
resets the other as well. This creates a problem where resetting one
channel will reset the registers for both channels, including clearing
interrupt enable bits for the other channel, which can then lead  to
timeouts as the driver is waiting for an interrupt which never comes.

The driver currently has a probe-time work around for this: when a
channel is created, the driver also resets and enables the
interrupts. With two channels the reset for the second channel will
clear the interrupt enables for the first one. The work around in the
driver is just to manually enable the interrupts again in
xilinx_dma_alloc_chan_resources().

This workaround only addresses the probe-time issue. When channels are
reset at runtime (e.g., in xilinx_dma_terminate_all() or during error
recovery), there's no corresponding mechanism to restore the other
channel's interrupt enables. This leads to one channel having its
interrupts disabled while the driver expects them to work, causing
timeouts and DMA failures.

A proper fix is a complicated matter, as we should not reset the other
channel when it's operating normally. So, perhaps, there should be some
kind of synchronization for a common reset, which is not trivial to
implement. To add to the complexity, the driver also supports other DMA
types, like VDMA, CDMA and MCDMA, which don't have a shared reset.

However, when the two-channel AXIDMA is used in the (assumably) normal
use case, providing DMA for a single memory-to-memory device, the common
reset is a bit smaller issue: when something bad happens on one channel,
or when one channel is terminated, the assumption is that we also want
to terminate the other channel. And thus resetting both at the same time
is "ok".

With that line of thinking we can implement a bit better work around
than just the current probe time work around: let's enable the
AXIDMA interrupts at xilinx_dma_start_transfer() instead.
This ensures interrupts are enabled whenever a transfer starts,
regardless of any prior resets that may have cleared them.

This approach is also more logical: enable interrupts only when needed
for a transfer, rather than at resource allocation time, and, I think,
all the other DMA types should also use this model, but I'm reluctant to
do such changes as I cannot test them.

The reset function still enables interrupts even though it's not needed
for AXIDMA anymore, but it's common code for all DMA types (VDMA, CDMA,
MCDMA), so leave it unchanged to avoid affecting other variants.

[ Upstream commit c7d812e33f3e8ca0fa9eeabf71d1c7bc3acedc09 ]

The segment .control and .status fields both contain top bits which are
not part of the buffer size, the buffer size is located only in the bottom
max_buffer_len bits. To avoid interference from those top bits, mask out
the size using max_buffer_len first, and only then subtract the values.
