Subject: Question about DMA
Date: Sun, 27 Jan 2008 21:51:52 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <38b2ab8a0801271251v1a9ea256w8fa4b9fcc620f742@mail.gmail.com> (raw)

Hello,

I have 2 questions regarding set_dma_addr(unsigned int channel,
unsigned int addr) helper.

1/  Why does the function take only one address ? I would expect it
to take both a source and a destination address for the dma controller
to transfer data.

2/ The type of address parameter is an unsigned int. Why isn't it a dma_addr_t
type ?

Thanks !
