Subject: [PATCH] device: add dma_params->max_segment_count
Date: Thu, 12 Jul 2012 12:44:16 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1342115056-27419-1-git-send-email-rob.clark@linaro.org> (raw)

From: Rob Clark <rob@ti.com>

For devices which have constraints about maximum number of segments
in an sglist.  For example, a device which could only deal with
contiguous buffers would set max_segment_count to 1.

The initial motivation is for devices sharing buffers via dma-buf,
to allow the buffer exporter to know the constraints of other
devices which have attached to the buffer.  The dma_mask and fields
in 'struct device_dma_parameters' tell the exporter everything else
that is needed, except whether the importer has constraints about
maximum number of segments.
