Isn't this just the same problem as PL08x or any other system which has multiple requests from devices, but only a limited number of hardware channels - so you have to route the request signals to the appropriate hardware channels according to the requests queued up? If so, no new "custom" APIs are required, it's already able to be solved within the DMA engine drivers... (We also have more complex situations already supported, such as PL08x with a FPGA routing on three of its request signals.) -- RMK's Patch system: http://www.armlinux.org.uk/developer/patches/ FTTC broadband for 0.8mile line: currently at 9.6Mbps down 400kbps up according to speedtest.net. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe dmaengine" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
