Hi Peng,

Thanks to have addressed also the case of mailbox controllers with unidirectional
channels for P2A completion, but I have a further observation down
below, which I missed last time.

Looking at mbox_client_txdone() implementation this call is allowed only
if the txdone_method is TXDONE_BY_ACK, which in turn depend on the type of
underlying mbox controller that you are using AND/OR the SCMI client configuration
(knows_tx_done), so I dont think you can call this unconditionally without the
risk of hitting the related dev_err() in mbox_client_txdone if the underlying
mbox controller was instead supposed to issue an mbox_chan_txdone() on its own.

IOW, if the mbox controller is operating in TXDONE_BY_IRQ mode or in
TXDONE_BY_POLL (and that would be the case if polling is used since the RX channel
does NOT set the client flag cl->knows_txdone to true, so TXDONE_BY_ACK is not used
as an override) this should hit the dev_err() mentioned above...

dont you see any error ?

which mailbox controller do you use ?

does your mailbox controller NOT set txdone_irq and NEITHER txdone_poll ? 
(so defaulting to TDONE_BY_ACK in your case ?)

Thanks,
Cristian
