SI DMA: clarification on naming convention

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi,

While working on cleaning up sid.h, si_enums.h and some other SI
related files, I've been scratching my head about why SI DMA files and
variables were named "DMA" compared to CIK and over where "SDMA" is
used.

While I understand that a new system DMA was introduced with CIK,
isn't SI DMA also a "system DMA"? Could we use the same naming
convention and talk about sDMA, name defines values, shifts and masks?
Could si_dma.c/.h be renamed to si_sdma.c/.h? Was the naming
difference introduced to CIK so different that the naming covention
needed to be modified?

Thanks,
Alexandre Demers
