At present, Bridge is using its own version of MMU module for mapping the DSP VA to physical address, and this Bridge's MMU module can be replaced with the omap iommu. But before we do that, following things need to happen: - The iommu should reside in linux-omap tree :) - IOMMU module provides support for preservation of TLB entries. - IOMMU module provides support for notification of MMU faults. I did some basic sanity testing in Bridge by replacing the Bridge's MMU module with the iommu module and the above items need to happen before we migrate to use iommu.
