But we could implement the pause/resume bits correctly wait until it is merge and post this and rely on the fact that it works (including error checking). RMK requested that he wants the UART driver fixed before touching the DMA driver and this has been done in meantime. So we could go ahead and add the missing pieces to SDMA. > Regards, > Peter Hurley > Sebastian -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-serial" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
