hi, Linus, Walleij:
I found the dma controller driver for amba-pl08x.
may i have two questions for you ? Thank you very much!
1) how to add the devices resource for this driver ? i
did not find any info in the kernel but this driver.
2) in the below function, if the slave is set true,
kernel will panic, because slave_channels is NULL, and nobody
initialize this member, should this member be initialized by vendor ?
static int pl08x_dma_init_virtual_channels(struct pl08x_driver_data *pl08x,
struct dma_device *dmadev, unsigned int channels, bool slave)
{
struct pl08x_dma_chan *chan;
int i;
INIT_LIST_HEAD(&dmadev->channels);
/*
* Register as many many memcpy as we have physical channels,
* we won't always be able to use all but the code will have
* to cope with that situation.
*/
for (i = 0; i < channels; i++) {
chan = kzalloc(sizeof(*chan), GFP_KERNEL);
if (!chan) {
dev_err(&pl08x->adev->dev,
"%s no memory for channel\n", __func__);
return -ENOMEM;
}
chan->host = pl08x;
chan->state = PL08X_CHAN_IDLE;
if (slave) {
chan->cd = &pl08x->pd->slave_channels[i];
pl08x_dma_slave_init(chan);
} else {
