I know; this is a bit unfortunate but not too much of an issue since it's only ever mentioned in the context of a DAIFMT constant so it's clear what's being talked about. In this case it's particularly confusing because the hardware is always talked about as being PCM and from the sounds of it some of the current S5P processors already have some basic DSP stuff in them. > I used 'DSP' for things related to ALSA and 'PCM' for h/w specific things. I'm having a hard time following your logic here? This is a hardware driver after all. > > You might want to rename the existing PCM driver to DMA. > Could do that, but still 'PCM' is used at other places in the stack as well. > Would that be fine? Probably, yes. The use of PCM for DMA drivers is there mostly because in older systems the PCM interface offered no software control at all so all you needed to drive them was the DMA driver. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-samsung-soc" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
