Configure individual channel for DMA transfer.

Parameters
  • dev – Pointer to the device structure for the driver instance.

errno code if failure.

static inline uint32_t dma_width_index(uint32_t size)

Look-up generic width index to be used in registers.

WARNING: This look-up works for most controllers, but may not work for yours. Ensure your controller expects the most common register bit values before using this convenience function. If your controller does not support these values, you will have to write your own look-up inside the controller driver.

Parameters
  • size – width of bus (in bytes)

Returns common

DMA index to be placed into registers.

static inline uint32_t dma_burst_index(uint32_t burst)

Look-up generic burst index to be used in registers.

WARNING: This look-up works for most controllers, but may not work for yours. Ensure your controller expects the most common register bit values before using this convenience function. If your controller does not support these values, you will have to write your own look-up inside the controller driver.

Parameters
  • burst – number of bytes to be sent in a single burst

Returns common

DMA index to be placed into registers.

struct dma_block_config
#include <dma.h>

DMA block configuration structure.

source_address is block starting address at source source_gather_interval is the address adjustment at gather boundary dest_address is block starting address at destination dest_scatter_interval is the address adjustment at scatter boundary dest_scatter_count is the continuous transfer count between scatter boundaries source_gather_count is the continuous transfer count between gather boundaries block_size is the number of bytes to be transferred for this block.
