What's the point of posting these patches for review if the issues don't get solved? The omap-serial uart driver is designed to work either in interrupt mode or in DMA mode, We have provided this option so that one can select interrupt mode or DMA mode based on the uart usage, if somebody is using uart as console then interrupt mode will do, else if used with bluetooth which does huge data transfer then DMA mode can be selected. Don't you think this should be a configurable option using kconfig rather than passing as platform data? if used as platform data then one has to modify platform data to switch between the interrupt and DMA mode. Regards, Govindraj.R Usage of UART is board dependent. It's usage will not change dynamically for a given board. This can be removed from Kconfig and move it to respective board file- board-*.c Regards, Tony -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line unsubscribe linux-serial in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line unsubscribe linux-omap in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line unsubscribe linux-omap in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
