I have looked again at your code and looking for a free descriptor only when it
is needed is sufficient. You can forget my previous proposal.
Back to your code, I think you need to be sure that the descriptor you want to
re-use is really available and so you need to check the 'R' bit to be sure
that we are not with 'R' = 1 and 'UB' = 1 which means "BD is used, waiting for
a transfer".
For instance:
if (ctrl & (QMC_BD_TX_R | QMC_BD_TX_UB)) {
if (!(ctrl & (QMC_BD_TX_I | QMC_BD_TX_R) &&
bd == chan->txbd_done) {
if (ctrl & QMC_BD_TX_W)
chan->txbd_done = chan->txbds;
else
chan->txbd_done++;
} else {
/* We are full ... */
ret = -EBUSY;
goto end;
}
}
Best regards,
Hervé
