Back when this was first written, dma_supported() was somewhat of a murky mess, with subtly different interpretations being relied upon in various places. The "does device X support DMA to address range Y?" uses assuming Y to be physical addresses, which motivated the current iommu_dma_supported() implementation and are alluded to in the comment therein, have since been cleaned up, leaving only the far less ambiguous "can device X drive address bits Y" usage internal to DMA API mask setting. As such, there is no reason to keep a slightly misleading callback which does nothing but duplicate the current default behaviour; we already constrain IOVA allocations to the iommu_domain aperture where necessary, so let's leave DMA mask business to architecture-specific code where it belongs.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
