From: adharmap on 10 Feb 2010 15:40 From: Abhijeet Dharmapurikar <adharmap(a)quicinc.com> Please refer to the post here http://lkml.org/lkml/2010/1/4/347 These changes are to introduce barrierless dma_map_area and dma_unmap_area and use them to map the buffers in the scatterlist. For the last buffer, call the normal dma_map_area(aka with barriers) effectively executing the barrier at the end of the operation. Note that the barrierless operations are implemented for few arm architectures only and I would implement for others once these are okayed by the community.
