Hi Vinod Koul and Dan Williams,
Ping?

Not much to review from the dmaengine side, just one question below.
It would be helpful if you can send these to the new dmaengine
patchwork at dmaengine@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx with the Acks you have already
collected.


Sorry didn't notice this new mailing list.
I will resend these patches to it again.

Hi Vinod,
I have gotten ACK from Mark for both the 1/3 and 2/3 patches.
Thanks.

This patch adds support to 8-channel DMA engine, thus the driver works
for both
the new 8-channel and the legacy 4-channel DMA engines.

Isn't it a bit fragile to have this based on the resource address?
Can't device tree tell you the channel id directly by an index into
the "dma0: dma@100300" node?

Yes, both this way and putting a "cell-index" into device tree work.
This won't be fragile, because the resource address should always be defined correctly, otherwise even if we can tell a channel id by "cell-index" but with wrong resource address, nothing will work.
This piece of code only doesn't seem as neat as using "cell-index", but we prefer the style that let the device tree describes as true as what hardware really has. This doesn't mean "cell-index" isn't acceptable, if it is necessary and unavoidable, we can send another patch to add it, but currently there is no need and we don't have to do this.
