Hi Sekhar,

Say, if the driver is loaded as a module.
If I allocate the sram in the platform code, how to I
free it when the driver is unloaded.

This is what I said in my last e-mail. What is
the issue you see with this approach?

ok, so what you are suggesting is that I implement some
callbacks (like .fifo_alloc, .fifo_dealloc) which can allocate
memory using sram_alloc.
My doubt is, if already such API's are there (by Russel) or you
are suggesting to implement them.

I can add the fifo_alloc/dealloc as part of the suart platform_data,
Is that's what you are suggesting. If you may please point me out to any example. I am just not clear with this. _______________________________________________
