On stream stop currently we stop the DMA first followed by the CPU DAI.
This can cause underflow (playback) or overflow (capture) on the DAI side
as the DMA is no longer feeding data while the DAI is still active.
It can be observed easily if the DAI side does not have FIFO (or it is
disabled) to survive the time while the DMA is stopped, but still can
happen on relatively slow CPUs when relatively high sampling rate is used:
the FIFO is drained between the time the DMA is stopped and the DAI is
stopped.

It can only fixed by using different sequence within trigger for 'stop' and
'start':
case SNDRV_PCM_TRIGGER_START:
case SNDRV_PCM_TRIGGER_RESUME:
case SNDRV_PCM_TRIGGER_PAUSE_RELEASE:
	Start DMA first followed by CPU DAI (currently used sequence)

case SNDRV_PCM_TRIGGER_STOP:
case SNDRV_PCM_TRIGGER_SUSPEND:
case SNDRV_PCM_TRIGGER_PAUSE_PUSH:
	Stop CPU DAI first followed by DMA

Hi,

on a new TI platform (j721e) where we can disable the McASP FIFO (the CPU dai)
since the UDMA + PDMA provides the buffering I have started to see error
interrupts right after pcm_trigger:STOP and in rare cases even on PAUSE that
McASP underruns.
I was also able to reproduce the same issue on am335x board, but it is much
harder to trigger it.

With this patch the underrun after trigger:STOP is gone.

If I think about the issue, I'm not sure why it was not noticed before as the
behavior makes sense:
we stop the DMA first then we stop the CPU DAI. If between the DMA stop and DAI
stop we would need a sample in the DAI (which is still running) then for sure we
will underrun in the HW (or overrun in case of capture).

When I run the ALSA conformance test [1] it is easier to trigger.

Not sure if anyone else have seen such underrun/overrun when stopping a stream,
but the fact that I have seen it with both UDMA+PDMA and EDMA on different
platforms makes me wonder if the issue can be seen on other platforms as well.

This is interesting, we had a similar issue for SOF on HDaudio platforms 
with underruns on stop [1], which we fixed 'locally' with a change 
between IPC and DMA stop.

I'll ask our CI/QA folks to check if this patch improves the results 
further.

First I tried to 'fix' (to be precise mask it) locally by adding a flag
in McASP driver that now the DAI is stopped and ignore any interrupts.
Obviously it fixed the print, but it did not fixed the things on the bus
- McASP shifts out the last word it had in case of underrun.
This is why I looked deeper and the soc_pcm_trigger sequence matched the
symptoms I have been seeing.

Looking forward to see the result, it might be that you can even revert
the workaround? But looking at it more closely SOF has it's own
sequencing, perhaps the two might be needed at the same time?

Yeah, this makes sense I think.

There are a bunch of systems where the trigger only actually does
anything with one or the other of the IPs and the startup for the
other is handled by a hardware signal so the ordering doesn't
really matter for them.

I'd guess so, especially with smaller buffers.

If they use generic dmaengine pcm then their DMA is going to be
stopped/paused in trigger. Not sure how they can handle in DAI when the
DMA is stopped.

I have sent the non RFC patch with fix to the not initialized ret and
updated commit message to document the trigger sequences for start and
stop type of events.
