Tony, Did you happen to have a look at these couple of patches ? > -----Original Message----- > From: linux-omap-owner@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx > [mailto:linux-omap-owner@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of > Shilimkar, Santosh > Sent: Wednesday, February 04, 2009 2:39 PM > To: Tony Lindgren > Cc: linux-omap@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx > Subject: [PATCH] OMAP: sDMA: DMA channel reservation using bootargs > > Tony, > Here is the first patch as promised. > > From: Santosh Shilimkar <santosh.shilimkar@xxxxxx> > > This patch set up a cmdline option for omap dma for masking the > available channels.
