Subject: [v1,1/3] dmaengine: Add note to dmatest documentation about supported channels
Date: Mon, 26 Mar 2018 14:50:25 +0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20180326115027.19955-1-andriy.shevchenko@linux.intel.com> (raw)

The documentation is not so clear for newbies in a sense of what type of the
channels are supported by it.

Clarify this by adding a note at the preamble of the documentation.

 This small document introduces how to test DMA drivers using dmatest module.
 
+.. note::
+  The test suite works only on the channels that have at least one
+  capability of the following: DMA_MEMCPY (memory-to-memory), DMA_MEMSET
+  (const-to-memory or memory-to-memory, when emulated), DMA_XOR, DMA_PQ.

 Part 1 - How to build the test module
