dma_addr_t i2o_dma_map_single
(struct i2o_controller * c, void * ptr, size_t size, enum dma_data_direction direction, u32 ** sg_ptr);
I2O controller
pointer to the data which should be mapped
size of data in bytes
DMA_TO_DEVICE / DMA_FROM_DEVICE
pointer to the SG list inside the I2O message
This function does all necessary DMA handling and also writes the I2O SGL elements into the I2O message. For details on DMA handling see also dma_map_single. The pointer sg_ptr will only be set to the end of the SG list if the allocation was successful.
Returns DMA address which must be checked for failures using dma_mapping_error.
