2 * linux/kernel/dma.c: A DMA channel allocator. Inspired by linux/kernel/irq.c.
4 * Written by Hennus Bergman, 1992.
6 * 1994/12/26: Changes by Alex Nash to fix a minor bug in /proc/dma.
7 * In the previous version the reported device could end up being wrong,
8 * if a device requested a DMA channel that was already in use.
9 * [It also happened to remove the sizeof(char *) == sizeof(int)
10 * assumption introduced because of those /proc/dma patches. -- Hennus]

20 /* A note on resource allocation:
22 * All drivers needing DMA channels, should allocate and release them
23 * through the public routines `request_dma()' and `free_dma()'.
25 * In order to avoid problems, all processes should allocate resources in
26 * the same sequence and release them in the reverse order.
28 * So, when allocating DMAs and IRQs, first allocate the IRQ, then the DMA.
29 * When releasing them, first release the DMA, then release the IRQ.
30 * If you don't, you may cause allocation requests to fail unnecessarily.
31 * This doesn't really matter now, but it will once we get real semaphores
