Yep, we could create a wrapper extracting dma_slave caps info, converting it to sg_constraints and calling sg_alloc_table_from_buf(). But let's try to get this function accepted first, and I'll send another patch providing this wrapper. BTW, do you see other things that should be added in sg_constraints? -- Boris Brezillon, Free Electrons Embedded Linux and Kernel engineering http://free-electrons.com -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-media" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
