Yes. > If not, what is? And what in the kernel is already using it > so I can look at some example code. There's some network stuff that uses it for optimization. If CONFIG_NET_DMA is enabled, that will turn on some kind of TCP/IP offloading. I don't really know much about that. There's also a dmatest.c testing driver. It would definitely be nice to see a third client driver. -- Timur Tabi Linux kernel developer at Freescale _______________________________________________ Linuxppc-embedded mailing list Linuxppc-embedded@ozlabs.org https://ozlabs.org/mailman/listinfo/linuxppc-embedded
