[PATCH 3/3] dmaengine: qcom: gpi: Convert dev_dbg() calls to tracepoints

From: Praveen Talari

Date: Mon Aug 31 2026 - 15:09:27 EST


Replace the remaining dev_dbg() based debug logging in the GPI DMA
driver with the qcom_gpi tracepoints, providing structured runtime
visibility into GPI DMA behavior without requiring invasive debug
patches. dev_err() calls are left untouched.

Tracepoints are added at the same points as the dev_dbg() calls they
replace: channel/event command dispatch in gpi_send_cmd(), error and
top-level interrupt status in gpi_process_gen_err_irq() and
gpi_handle_irq(), event/channel control state transitions in the IRQ
handler and gpi_process_ch_ctrl_irq(), completion event handling
(including the no-pending-descriptor and transfer result paths) in
gpi_process_imed_data_event(), gpi_process_xfer_compl_event() and
gpi_process_events(), ring allocation details in gpi_alloc_ring(),
already-in-state checks in gpi_pause()/gpi_resume(), TRE contents in
gpi_create_i2c_tre()/gpi_create_spi_tre(), and TRE queuing in
gpi_issue_pending().
