DMA_PREP_INTERRUPT. Unfortunately, most DMA engine slave API users don't set it when they setup their transfer: * @DMA_PREP_INTERRUPT - trigger an interrupt (callback) upon completion of * this transaction if we fixed that, then we could use the lack of it to avoid the interrupt. However, cyclic transfers don't have the flags parameter used to pass this bit. Yet another bit of yucky inconsistent design in DMA engine land... -- 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
