Well, pci_* is a legacy API in Linux 2.5 now. Currently architectures can either implement dma_* or pci_* and the other one will be emulated, but I hope we can get rid of this mess soon and dma_* is the one implemented on the architectures and pci_* emulated in a single place - and maybe it can go away two stables series from now. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/ | ||||||||||||
