Subject: [PATCH 1 of 2] Introduce __iowrite32_copy
Date: Thu, 12 Jan 2006 09:05:31 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <ec2b3675168a90ce4f12.1137085531@eng-12.pathscale.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <patchbomb.1137085530@eng-12.pathscale.com>

This arch-independent routine copies data to a memory-mapped I/O region,
using 32-bit accesses.  The naming is double-underscored to make it clear
that it does not guarantee write ordering, nor does it perform a
memory barrier afterwards; the kernel doc also explicitly states this.
This style of access is required by some devices.

This change also introduces include/linux/io.h, at Andrew's suggestion.
It only has one occupant at the moment, but is a logical destination
for oft-replicated contents of include/asm-*/{io,iomap}.h to migrate to.

Signed-off-by: Bryan O'Sullivan <bos@pathscale.com>
