The error message itself is okay in the case we actually want to use dma, but it's misleading if we disable dma on purpose through not providing dma-names. So i would prefer a explicit enable/disable switch and handle that one before looking for the dma-names. > > Cheers, > Diederik > >>>> Signed-off-by: Philipp Puschmann <p.puschmann@xxxxxxxxxxx> >>>> --- >>>> >>>> arch/arm64/boot/dts/rockchip/rk356x.dtsi | 10 ++++++++++ >>>> 1 file changed, 10 insertions(+) >>>> >>>> diff --git a/arch/arm64/boot/dts/rockchip/rk356x.dtsi >>>> b/arch/arm64/boot/dts/rockchip/rk356x.dtsi index >>>> d8543b5557ee..4ae40661ca6a >>>> 100644 >>>> --- a/arch/arm64/boot/dts/rockchip/rk356x.dtsi >>>> +++ b/arch/arm64/boot/dts/rockchip/rk356x.dtsi >>>> @@ -489,6 +489,7 @@ uart0: serial@fdd50000 { >>>> >>>> clocks = <&pmucru SCLK_UART0>, <&pmucru PCLK_UART0>; >>>> clock-names = "baudclk", "apb_pclk"; >>>> dmas = <&dmac0 0>, <&dmac0 1>; >>>> >>>> + dma-names = "tx", "rx"; >>>> >>>> pinctrl-0 = <&uart0_xfer>; >>>> pinctrl-names = "default"; >>>> reg-io-width = <4>; >>>> >>>> @@ -1389,6 +1390,7 @@ uart1: serial@fe650000 { >>>> >>>> clocks = <&cru SCLK_UART1>, <&cru PCLK_UART1>; >>>> clock-names = "baudclk", "apb_pclk"; >>>> dmas = <&dmac0 2>, <&dmac0 3>; >>>> >>>> + dma-names = "tx", "rx"; >>>> >>>> pinctrl-0 = <&uart1m0_xfer>; >>>> pinctrl-names = "default"; >>>> reg-io-width = <4>; >>>> >>>> ... > -- Philipp Puschmann, M.Sc.
