Subject: Re: [PATCH 2/2] arm-nommu: Add use_reserved_mem() to check if device
 support reserved memory

Hi Vladimir,

Thanks for reviewing.

Hi Christoph Hellwig,

I just want to know if kernel dma mapping/direct is focused on
platforms with MMU.
leave arch code to handle dma coherent memory management themself for
no-MMU platform.

so, you just return error code in kernel/dma/mapping.c,direct.c
without CONFIG_MMU defined ?
which means dma-direct mapping doesn't support !CONFIG_MMU is not a
bug, but design as it's.
or, just return error code currently, will add dma direct mapping
support for !CONFIG_MMU in the
future?

As Vladimir Murzin's suggestion has changes in kernel code, I need
your input to get
the design goal about dma-direct mapping, thanks.

Yes, this is a quite nice way to support !CONFIG_MMU without cache on
platforms. I will try your suggestion.
