• b9432e4d8   [PATCH] Remove pci_dac_set_dma_mask() from Documentation/DMA-mapping.txt ... Browse Code »

  pci_dac_set_dma_mask() gives only a single match in the whole kernel tree
  and that's in this doc file. The best candidate for replacement is
  pci_dac_dma_supported().

• 21440d313   [PATCH] dma doc updates ... Browse Code »

  This updates the DMA API documentation to address a few issues:

  - The dma_map_sg() call results are used like pci_map_sg() results:
  using sg_dma_address() and sg_dma_len(). That's not wholly obvious
  to folk reading _only_ the "new" DMA-API.txt writeup.

  - Buffers allocated by dma_alloc_coherent() may not be completely
  free of coherency concerns ... some CPUs also have write buffers
  that may need to be flushed.

  - Cacheline coherence issues are now mentioned as being among issues
  which affect dma buffers, and complicate/prevent using of static and
  (especially) stack based buffers with the DMA calls.

  I don't think many drivers currently need to worry about flushing write
  buffers, but I did hit it with one SOC using external SDRAM for DMA
  descriptors: without explicit writebuffer flushing, the on-chip DMA
  controller accessed descriptors before the CPU completed the writes.

  These are the last conversions of pci_set_dma_mask(),
  pci_set_consistent_dma_mask() and pci_dma_supported() to use DMA_xBIT_MASK
  constants from linux/dma-mapping.h

  Replace all occurences of 0xff.. in calls to function pci_set_dma_mask()
  and pci_set_consistant_dma_mask() with the corresponding DMA_xBIT_MASK from
  linux/dma-mapping.h.

  these have been wrappers for the generic dma direction bits since 2.5.x.
  This patch converts the few remaining drivers and removes the macros.

  Arjan noticed there's some hunk in here that shouldn't. Updated patch

  Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
  even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
  archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
  3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
  git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
  infrastructure for it.

  Let it rip!
