Subject: [PATCH v2 3/3] sh: dma: Correct the number of DMA channels in SH7709

According to the hardware manual [1], the DMAC found in SH7709 features
only 4 channels.

While at it, also sort the existing targets and clarify that
NR_ONCHIP_DMA_CHANNELS must be a multiply of two.

Thanks for the update!

> - clarify that the value must be a multiply of two

That's only true when there are two DMACs, right?

Even in that case, you could mitigate that by avoiding the division by

#ifdef SH_DMAC_BASE1
-#define SH_DMAC_NR_MD_CH (CONFIG_NR_ONCHIP_DMA_CHANNELS / 2)
+#define SH_DMAC_NR_MD_CH 6
#else
#define SH_DMAC_NR_MD_CH CONFIG_NR_ONCHIP_DMA_CHANNELS
#endif

That is actually safer, as the user can override NR_ONCHIP_DMA_CHANNELS
when configuring his kernel, thus breaking DMA due to an incorrect
value of SH_DMAC_NR_MD_CH.

Unfortunately we cannot protect against that when using a single DMAC,
as SH_DMAC_NR_MD_CH can be either 4, 6, or 8.

Perhaps this configuration should be moved from Kconfig to <cpu/dma.h>,
to protect against a user overriding this value?

Aren't we dropping SH_DMAC_BASE1 in the other patch anyway?

Isn't SH_DMAC_NR_MD_CH already hardwired to the SoC being used?

Only for the SH4 parts that do not have it.
It is still set in arch/sh/include/cpu-sh4a/cpu/dma.h for the SH4a parts with
12 channels and 2 DMACs.

It depends on CONFIG_NR_ONCHIP_DMA_CHANNELS, while it
should be fixed based on the SoC.

OK, thanks for the clarification. I will review the other patches tonight.

I agree. However, I would be fine with merging this patch set first and fixing
this particular issue in a follow-up series.

So, my suggestion is to take this series as-is for 6.5, then get the other issues
you mentioned fixed for 6.6. I think it's already a gain when these issues are
fixed and the kernel boots on the HP Journada 680 again.

Apologies for the late reply. Would you mind adding your Reviewed-by to this patch

Thanks. I guess, I will drop the whole

"and clarify that NR_ONCHIP_DMA_CHANNELS must be a multiply of two"

then. Correct?
