linux-toradex.git/Documentation/DMA-ISA-LPC.txt, branch v4.2.7 Linux kernel for Apalis and Colibri modules DMA-API: Clarify physical/bus address distinction 2014-05-20T22:54:21+00:00 Bjorn Helgaas bhelgaas@google.com 2014-04-30T17:20:53+00:00 77f2ea2f8d0833f9e976368481fb9a0775acf9e7 The DMA-API documentation sometimes refers to "physical addresses" when it really means "bus addresses." Sometimes these are identical, but they may be different if the bridge leading to the bus performs address translation. Update the documentation to use "bus address" when appropriate. Also, consistently capitalize "DMA", use parens with function names, use dev_printk() in examples, and reword a few sections for clarity. No functional change; documentation changes only.
