Documentation: correct parameter error for dma_mapping_error

2014-09-26T09:22:29Z

dma_mapping_error takes two parameters, but some of examples in Documentation/DMA-API-HOWTO.txt just takes one. So correct it. Signed-off-by: Liu Hua Acked-by: Randy Dunlap Signed-off-by: Jiri Kosina

DMA-API: Update dma_pool_create ()and dma_pool_alloc() descriptions

2014-05-26T23:28:28Z

Use "boundary" to be more descriptive than "alloc" in the dma_pool_create() documentation. Replace "SLAB_KERNEL" and "SLAB_ATOMIC" with the correct "GFP_KERNEL" and "GFP_ATOMIC." [bhelgaas: changelog] Signed-off-by: Gioh Kim Signed-off-by: Bjorn Helgaas

DMA-API: Fix duplicated word in DMA-API-HOWTO.txt

2014-05-26T23:28:27Z

"coherent" is written twice when it should be just once. Signed-off-by: Emilio López Signed-off-by: Bjorn Helgaas

DMA-API: Capitalize "CPU" consistently

2014-05-26T23:28:27Z

Sometimes we used "cpu," other times "CPU." Use "CPU" consistently. Suggested-by: Randy Dunlap Signed-off-by: Bjorn Helgaas

DMA-API: Clarify physical/bus address distinction

2014-05-20T22:54:21Z

The DMA-API documentation sometimes refers to "physical addresses" when it really means "bus addresses." Sometimes these are identical, but they may be different if the bridge leading to the bus performs address translation. Update the documentation to use "bus address" when appropriate. Also, consistently capitalize "DMA", use parens with function names, use dev_printk() in examples, and reword a few sections for clarity. No functional change; documentation changes only.

DMA-API: provide a helper to set both DMA and coherent DMA masks

2013-09-17T14:32:37Z

Provide a helper to set both the DMA and coherent DMA masks to the same value - this avoids duplicated code in a number of drivers, sometimes with buggy error handling, and also allows us identify which drivers do things differently. Signed-off-by: Russell King

Documentation DMA-API-HOWTO.txt Add dma mapping error check usage examples

2012-10-24T15:07:43Z

Enhance the document to discuss the importance of dma mapping error checks after dma_map_single() and dma_map_page() calls. Also added usage examples that include unmap examples in error paths when dma mapping error is returned. Includes correct and incorrect usages to high light some common mistakes in error paths especially when dma mapping fails when more than one dma mapping call is made.
