async_tx and RAID HW xor engine

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

 



Hi,

I am trying to understand how are hardware xor engine's utilized by
async_tx module. I don't get the exact link that connects async_tx and
hardware xor engine.
Could someone help me understand it.

Registration of a RAID HW XOR engine happens in
drivers/dma/<soc-xor.c> using dma_async_device_register(). Does this
registration function connect the async_tx api's
to use the HW XOR engine? Or is there anything we need to support to
make async_tx api's to take advantage of the hardware XOR engine?

Thanks & Regards,
Rajasekhar
