2011-07-27dmaengine: imx-sdma: use platform_device_id to identify sdma versionShawn Guo
It might be not good to use software defined version to identify sdma device type, when hardware does not define such version. Instead, soc name is stable enough to define the device type. The patch uses platform_device_id rather than version number passed by platform data to identify sdma device type/version.

2011-07-07dmaengine: imx-sdma: pass sdma firmware name via platform dataShawn Guo
It is not good to have cpu_name and to_version encoded into sdma firmware name as variables. For example, there are three TOs of imx51 soc, the sdma script never changes since TO1, which means all three TOs of imx51 uses TO1 version of sdma script. But we have to prepare three identical firmwares, sdma-imx51-to1.bin sdma-imx51-to2.bin and sdma-imx51-to3.bin, to have the kernel capable of running on all three TOs. The patch removes cpu_name and to_version from sdma platform data, and instead uses fw_name to pass the firmware name, so that we can pass the TO version where it's relevant and skip it where only one firmware exists.

2010-12-03dmaengine i.MX SDMA: Allow to run without firmwareSascha Hauer
The SDMA firmware consists of a ROM part and a RAM part. The ROM part is always present in the SDMA engine and is sufficient for many cases. This patch allows to pass in platform data containing the script addresses in ROM, so loading a firmware is optional now.

2010-10-05dmaengine: Add Freescale i.MX SDMA supportSascha Hauer
This patch adds support for the Freescale i.MX SDMA engine. The SDMA engine is a scatter/gather DMA engine which is implemented as a seperate coprocessor. SDMA needs its own firmware which is requested using the standard request_firmware mechanism. The firmware has different entry points for each peripheral type, so drivers have to pass the peripheral type to the DMA engine which in turn picks the correct firmware entry point from a table contained in the firmware image itself. The original Freescale code also supports support for transfering data to the internal SRAM which needs different entry points to the firmware. Support for this is currently not implemented. Also, support for the ASRC (asymmetric sample rate converter) is skipped. I took a very simple approach to implement dmaengine support. Only a single descriptor is statically assigned to a each channel. This means that transfers can't be queued up but only a single transfer is in progress. This simplifies implementation a lot and is sufficient for the usual device/memory transfers.
