So yes, it's for every > scatterlist entry on omap1. There's no direct scatterlist support on OMAP2 either (omap_hsmmc _used_ to do each scatterlist entry separately too). The DMA engine driver does the same, but will walk the scatterlist internally rather than the driver having to do it. I'd like to have the same thing happen on OMAP1 as well (it's actually quite simple to do) and it means that this DMA engine implementation detail is (correctly) hidden from the drivers - provided there's no dependencies on each individual scatterlist entry back to the peripheral driver. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-omap" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
