From a quick look into the header file I see some similarities to the IOMMU-API. I am also very open for discussions about how the IOMMU-API could be extended to fit the needs of other platforms. Only because nobody has tried to discuss about such an effort is no reason to push the IOMMU-API back. > > Since you added it two years ago, nobody has tried to extend > it. Instead, we have something like > arch/arm/plat-omap/include/plat/iommu.h. And I think we should try to merge this platform-specific functionality into the IOMMU-API.
