I do admit that it's been a while since that last look ;) The topic came up
when discussing PCI and bus systems in general with micro/real-time kernel
people whom I assumed to be experts in this since they had Linux kernels
running on top of their scheduling scheme. As it turned out, using an
abstraction such as a DMA map was a totally new concept to them. They
even questioned the usefulness of such an approach.
Cheers,
