The ASRC support 24bit/16bit/8bit input width, which is
data width, not slot width.
For the S20_3LE format, the data with is 20bit, slot width
is 24bit, if we set ASRMCR1n.IWD to be 24bits, the result
is the volume is lower than expected, it likes 24bit data
right shift 4 bits
So replace S20_3LE
This patch serial is to update the supported format for fsl_asrc
and fix some format issue.
Shengjiu Wang (4):
ASoC: fsl_asrc: Use in(out)put_format instead of in(out)put_word_width
ASoC: fsl_asrc: update supported sample format
ASoC: pcm_dmaengine: Extract snd_dmaengine_pcm_refine_runtime_h
snd_pcm_format_t is more formal than enum asrc_word_width, which has
two property, width and physical width, which is more accurate than
enum asrc_word_width. So it is better to use in(out)put_format
instead of in(out)put_word_width.

When set the runtime hardware parameters, we may need to query
the capability of DMA to complete the parameters.
This patch is to Extract this operation from

There is error "aplay: pcm_write:2023: write error: Input/output error"
on i.MX8QM/i.MX8QXP platform for S24_3LE format.
In i.MX8QM/i.MX8QXP, the DMA is EDMA, which don't support 24bit
sample, but we didn't add any constraint, that cause issues.
So we need to query the caps of dma, then update th

I will send a v3 that applies directly over v5.3, and make sure to

I am still trying to understand this issue.
I am also analyzing some cases where interrupt disable is not done
before the lockless pagetable walk (patch 3 discussion).
But given I forgot to add the mm mailing list before, I think it wo
If a process (qemu) with a lot of CPUs (128) try to munmap() a large
chunk of memory (496GB) mapped with THP, it takes an average of 275
seconds, which can cause a lot of problems to the load (in qemu case,
the guest will lock for this time).
Trying to find the source of this bug, I found out most

There is a need to monitor lockless pagetable walks, in order to avoid

As decribed, gup_pgd_range is a lockless pagetable walk. So, in order to
monitor against THP split/collapse with the couting method, it's necessary
to bound it with {start,end}_lockless_pgtbl_walk.
There are dummy functions, so it is not going to add any overhead on archs
