Armin,
ppc405_dma.c has several constructs like:
p_dma_ch->polarity = polarity & GET_DMA_POLARITY(0);
where GET_DMA_POLARITY() is defined:
#define GET_DMA_POLARITY(chan) DMAReq##chan##_ActiveLow | \
DMAAck##chan##_ActiveLow | EOT##chan##_ActiveLow
Note the macro has no parentheses around its definition, which is
unusual. IIRC C precedence will mean this code turns out as:
p_dma_ch->polarity = (polarity & DMAReq0_ActiveLow) | \
DMAAck0_ActiveLow | EOT0_ActiveLow
which looks wrong to me and if correct is an insane use of a macro.
It's also giving compiler warnings.
I'm guessing that the macro should just get parentheses, but that's a
semantic change so I don't want to make it without knowing for sure.
Could you check this?
