[PATCH 0/2] dma: edma: Allow to disable eDMA IRQ during cyclic transfer

[Peter Ujfalusi]

Hi,

After this series clients can ask to not receive notifications after each period.
In this case we can disable the completion interrupt since the position reporting
does not rely on it for cyclic mode.
Patchset for ASoC part has been sent which allows users space to take adventage
of SNDRV_PCM_INFO_NO_PERIOD_WAKEUP:
[1] http://mailman.alsa-project.org/pipermail/alsa-devel/2014-July/078993.html

When both series applied on top of linux-next:

# cache the audio file in memory
cat some_music.mp3 > /dev/null
# start PA
pulseaudio -v
# in another terminal, play the music via PA
mplayer -ao pulse some_music.mp3
# yet another terminal to monitor the interrupts
watch cat /proc/interrupts
# note the non increasing number of edma interrupts ;)

Regards,
Peter
