We'll see if that happens. It has been talked about forever, but results are sparse. > (and I think it mostly already doesn't even without that) It uses /sys/bus/pci/* which is not any better as seen from the IOMMU. Any interface will need to be explicit because user space needs to know which DMA addresses to put into the hardware. It's not enough to just transparently translate the mappings. -Andi - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
