[PATCH v3 1/2] dmaengine: qcom: gpi: Add trace event support

From: Praveen Talari

Date: Fri Sep 25 2026 - 16:55:31 EST


Add tracepoint support to the Qualcomm GPI DMA engine driver, giving
structured runtime visibility into GPI DMA behavior without requiring
invasive debug patches.

The events cover channel/event command dispatch, IRQ type handling,
channel/event control state transitions, error IRQ status, completion
event processing (including the no-pending-descriptor and transfer
result paths), per-event processing in the event ring, ring
allocation/programming details, already-in-state checks for
pause/resume, and TRE queuing and contents.
