Add the boolean module parameter "use_dma" to control the use of DMA by the driver. There are about two dozen other drivers with a "use_dma" parameter of some sort. DMA may allow faster and more efficient transfers than using PIO, but it also adds overhead for small transfers. High speed receive operations may be less likely to have issues with FIFO overflow when using DMA than when using PIO. The eCSPI appears to insert a 4 bit pause after each word in DMA mode, not done in PIO mode, which can make DMA transfers 50% slower than PIO. In some cases DMA may be a net win while in others PIO might be. It depends on the application. So allow DMA to be enabled or disabled at the driver level. The default will be to have it enabled when possible. Signed-off-by: Trent Piepho <tpiepho@impinj.com> Signed-off-by: Mark Brown <broonie@kernel.org> |

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
