17 * snd_fw_transaction - send a request and wait for its completion
18 * @unit: the driver's unit on the target device
19 * @tcode: the transaction code
20 * @offset: the address in the target's address space
21 * @buffer: input/output data
22 * @length: length of @buffer
24 * Submits an asynchronous request to the target device, and waits for the
25 * response. The node ID and the current generation are derived from @unit.
26 * On a bus reset or an error, the transaction is retried a few times.
27 * Returns zero on success, or a negative error code.
