SubjectRe: [PATCH v9 RESEND 0/4] Add generic driver for on-chip SRAM
From
Hi Andrew,

2013/3/20 Philipp Zabel <p.zabel@pengutronix.de>:
> Hi, last time I posted was a bit close to the merge window, so I'm
> reposting now. Greg, Arnd, could you take the first two patches?
>
> These patches add support to configure on-chip SRAM via device-tree
> node or platform data and to obtain the resulting genalloc pool from
> the struct device pointer or a phandle pointing at the device tree node.
> This allows drivers to allocate SRAM with the genalloc API without
> hard-coding the genalloc pool pointer.
>
> The on-chip SRAM on i.MX53 and i.MX6q can be registered via device tree
> and changed to use the simple generic SRAM driver:
>
> ocram: ocram@00900000 {
> compatible = "fsl,imx-ocram", "mmio-sram";
> reg = <0x00900000 0x3f000>;
> };
>
> A driver that needs to allocate SRAM buffers, like the video processing
> unit on i.MX53, can retrieve the genalloc pool from a phandle in the
> device tree using of_get_named_gen_pool(node, "iram", 0) from patch 1:
>
> vpu@63ff4000 {
> /* ... */
> iram = <&ocram>;
> };
>
> Changes since v8:
> - The sram driver now matches against the "mmio-sram" compatible string.
> - Removed a whitespace error in the device tree binding documentation.

Andrew: 1/4 and 2/4 patches should probably go through your tree.
Can you please handle them?
Or Philipp should send these two patches directly to you?

Thanks,
Michal
