The wrappers in include/linux/pci-dma-compat.h should go away.

If needed, see post from Christoph Hellwig on the kernel-janitors ML:

This has *NOT* been compile tested because I don't have the needed
configuration.

Hmm, seeing a free on its own made me wonder where the corresponding alloc was, but on closer inspection it seems there isn't one. AFAICS priv->dma_buf is only ever assigned with NULL (and priv->dev doesn't seem to be assigned at all), so this could likely just be removed. In fact it looks like all the references to DMA in this driver are just copy-paste from parport_pc and unused.

Robin.


Agreed. I had the same reaction, but as the patch should basically be a no-op, it looked safe, even if non-optimal.

Looking at parport_gsc_private, pword, readIntrThreshold and writeIntrThreshold also look unused.

My own goal is to remove the 'pci_free_consistent()' call in order to remove a deprecated API.

As said, I can not compile this driver.
I could send a blind fix that axes 'pci_free_consistent()' and remove some fields in parport_gsc_private, but I'm not sure that it is the best way to go.

Do you prefer to look at it by yourself or do you prefer to compile test my trials?
