amba-pl011 complains about DMA for bcm2835 where it is not supported

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi all,
according to BCM2835 ARM Peripherals spec DMA is optional functionality
for ARM PL011 UART and it is not supported on this SoC. It looks like
amba-pl011 search for device tree property (dma-names) unconditionally,
what leads to error message:

of_dma_request_slave_channel: dma-names property of node '/soc/uart@7e201000' missing or empty
uart-pl011 20201000.uart: no DMA platform data

I assume that if it is possible that amba-pl011 can be without DMA we
should check if DMA is supported and then try to read properties. Is
there any known method for checking dma support ? If yes that I would be
glad for any pointers.

Let me know if I should ignore/accept this error message or there is
some code fix needed.

Thanks,
Piotr Król
