Is there a reason not to use EMIFF as for the memory port for any DMA activity between a peripheral and system (kernel) memory? It looks to me like TIPB is the right port to use for anything except camera and LCD? If that's true, we can solve the memory side of the problem very easily - we know that prep_slave_sg() will always souce from system memory, so the port for that will be known. For the peripheral side of the transfer, I think we should case this on the request signal as the combinations seem to be very limited - and it looks like this knowledge is specific to the DMA controller rather than the peripheral. -- 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
