[PATCH v10 00/11] Add support for FDMA DMA controller and slim core rproc found on STi chipsets

From: Peter Griffin
Date: Sat Oct 08 2016 - 08:53:00 EST


Hi Vinod and Bjorn,

This patchset adds support for the Flexible Direct Memory Access (FDMA) core
found on STi chipsets from STMicroelectronics. The FDMA is a slim core CPU
with a dedicated firmware. It is a general purpose DMA controller supporting
16 independent channels and data can be moved from memory to memory or between
memory and paced latency critical real time targets.

[..]

V10 series updates remoteproc kconfig subsystem to use 'depends on' rather
than select for the remoteproc core. Remoteproc client drivers now need to
'depends on' for the core part.

This avoids the Kconfig recursive dependency errors and reliance on the DRM
patch included with the v9 series. Patches are also included for enabling the
remoteproc core in the multi_v7 defconfig. All patches for DRM subsystem have
been removed.

Note there is no longer a depedency with the DRM_VIRTIO_GPU driver in this series,
only remoteproc and dmaengine subsystems.

regards,

Peter.
