2013-01-03Drivers: dma: remove __dev* attributes.Greg Kroah-Hartman
CONFIG_HOTPLUG is going away as an option. As a result, the __dev* markings need to be removed. This change removes the use of __devinit, __devexit_p, __devinitconst, and __devexit from these drivers. Based on patches originally written by Bill Pemberton, but redone by me in order to handle some of the coding style issues better, by hand.

2012-11-15ioat: Do not enable DCA if tag map is invalidAlexander Duyck
I have encountered several systems that have an invalid tag map. This invalid tag map results in only two tags being generated 0x1F which is usually applied to the first core in a Hyper-threaded pair and 0x00 which is applied to the second core in a Hyper-threaded pair. The net result of all this is that DCA causes significant cache thrash because the 0x1F tag will send traffic to the second socket, which the 0x00 tag will not DCA tag the frame resulting in no benefit. For now the best solution from the driver's perspective is to just disable DCA if the tag map is invalid. The correct solution for this would be to have the BIOS on affected systems updated so that the correct tags are generated for a given APIC ID.

2009-11-19ioat3: dca and raid operations are incompatibleDan Williams
RAID operations cause a system hang on platforms with DCA (Direct-Cache-Access) enabled. So turn off RAID capabilities in this case. Signed-off-by: Dan Williams <dan.j.williams@intel.com>

Turning off dca is not an "error", and the dca-enabled state can be viewed from sysfs. Signed-off-by: Dan Williams <dan.j.williams@intel.com>

2009-07-28ioat: move to drivers/dma/ioat/Dan Williams
When first created the ioat driver was the only inhabitant of drivers/dma/. Now, it is the only multi-file (more than a .c and a .h) driver in the directory. Moving it to an ioat/ subdirectory allows the naming convention to be cleaned up, and allows for future splitting of the source files by hardware version (v1, v2, and v3).
