The GPI DMA controller is only responsible for QUP peripherals, and cannot work as a general-purpose DMA accelerator.

Set DMA_PRIVATE capability for it.

This fixes error messages about GPI being shown when an async-tx consumer is loaded.

Fixes: 5d0c353 ("dmaengine: qcom: Add GPI dma driver")

Summary by Sourcery

Bug Fixes:

  • Prevent spurious error messages and misuse by marking the Qualcomm GPI DMA controller with the DMA_PRIVATE capability instead of exposing it as a general-purpose DMA engine.

Reviewer's Guide

Marks the Qualcomm GPI DMA engine as a private, non-generic DMA provider by adding the DMA_PRIVATE capability flag during probe, ensuring it is only used by its intended QUP peripheral clients and eliminating spurious async-tx related error messages.

Mark the Qualcomm GPI DMA engine as DMA-private so it is not used as a generic async-tx DMA provider.
  • Extend the GPI DMA device capability mask to include DMA_PRIVATE in addition to DMA_SLAVE during probe initialization
  • Rely on the DMA engine core to skip advertising the GPI controller to generic async-tx consumers, preventing unrelated clients from attempting to use it

Pull request overview

Marks the Qualcomm GPI DMA controller as a private DMA engine so it won’t be treated as a general-purpose async-tx DMA provider, preventing spurious error messages and accidental consumer binding. This aligns the driver’s advertised capabilities with its intended use (QUP peripherals only).

Changes:

  • Add DMA_PRIVATE to the GPI DMAengine capability mask during probe.
  • Keep DMA_SLAVE capability while restricting generic allocator visibility via DMA_PRIVATE.
