For devices that lack > archdata.dma_ops, dma_supported() should return 0 (and the other ops > should return error). If the device doesn't have archdata.dma_ops we return the default implementation which is currently based on swiotlb. Do you mean that this shouldn't be the case and just let the device always set archdata.dma_ops? -- Catalin -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
