The ep93xx DMA controller has 10 independent memory to peripheral (M2P)
channels, and 2 dedicated memory to memory (M2M) channels. M2M channels can
also be used by SPI and IDE to perform DMA transfers to/from their memory
mapped FIFOs.
This driver supports both M2P and M2M channels with DMA_SLAVE, DMA_CYCLIC and
DMA_MEMCPY (M2M only) capabilities.

This driver will now be used in atleast two platforms AVR32 & ARM. And there is

This patch adds dma support for Freescale MXS-based SoC i.MX23/28,
including apbh-dma and apbx-dma.
* apbh-dma and apbx-dma are supported in the driver as two mxs-dma
instances.
* apbh-dma is different between mx23 and mx28, hardware version
register is used to differentiate.
* mxs-dma supports pio function besides data transfer. The driver
uses dma_data_direction DMA_NONE to identify the pio mode, and
steals sgl and sg_len to get pio words and numbers from clients.
* mxs dmaengine has some very specific features, like sense function
and the special NAND support (nand_lock, nand_wait4ready). These
are too specific to implemented in generic dmaengine driver.
* The driver refers to imx-sdma and only a single descriptor is
statically assigned to each channel.

This patch adds support for the Freescale i.MX SDMA engine.
The SDMA engine is a scatter/gather DMA engine which is implemented
as a seperate coprocessor. SDMA needs its own firmware which is
requested using the standard request_firmware mechanism. The firmware
has different entry points for each peripheral type, so drivers
have to pass the peripheral type to the DMA engine which in turn
picks the correct firmware entry point from a table contained in
the firmware image itself.
The original Freescale code also supports support for transfering
data to the internal SRAM which needs different entry points to
the firmware. Support for this is currently not implemented. Also,
support for the ASRC (asymmetric sample rate converter) is skipped.
I took a very simple approach to implement dmaengine support. Only
a single descriptor is statically assigned to a each channel. This
means that transfers can't be queued up but only a single transfer
is in progress. This simplifies implementation a lot and is sufficient
for the usual device/memory transfers.

This creates a DMAengine driver for the ARM PL080/PL081 PrimeCells
based on the implementation earlier submitted by Peter Pearse.
This is working like a charm for memcpy and slave DMA to the PL011
PrimeCell on the PB11MPCore.
This DMA controller is used in mostly unmodified form in the ARM
RealView and Versatile platforms, in the ST-Ericsson Nomadik, and
in the ST SPEAr platform.
It has been converted to use the header from the Samsung PL080
derivate instead of its own defintions. The Samsungs have a custom
driver in their mach-* folders though, atleast we can share the
register definitions.

Channel switching is problematic for some dmaengine drivers as the
architecture precludes separating the ->prep from ->submit. In these
cases the driver can select ASYNC_TX_DISABLE_CHANNEL_SWITCH to modify
the async_tx allocator to only return channels that support all of the
required asynchronous operations.
For example MD_RAID456=y selects support for asynchronous xor, xor
validate, pq, pq validate, and memcpy. When
ASYNC_TX_DISABLE_CHANNEL_SWITCH=y any channel with all these
capabilities is marked DMA_ASYNC_TX allowing async_tx_find_channel() to
quickly locate compatible channels with the guarantee that dependency
chains will remain on one channel. When
ASYNC_TX_DISABLE_CHANNEL_SWITCH=n async_tx_find_channel() may select
channels that lead to operation chains that need to cross channel
boundaries using the async_tx channel switch capability.

This AHB DMA Controller (aka HDMA or DMAC on AT91 systems) is availlable on

This first release covers only the memory-to-memory tranfer type. This is the

also for peripheral DMA transfer (slave API support to come).
I used dmatest client without problem in different configurations to test it.

On HIGHMEM64G systems dma_addr_t is known to be larger than (void *)
which precludes async_xor from performing dma address conversions by
reusing the input parameter address list. However, other parts of the

HIGHMEM64G restriction can be down-levelled.

async_xor() needs space to perform dma and page address conversions. In
most cases the code can simply reuse the struct page * array because the
size of the native pointer matches the size of a dma/page address. In
order to support archs where sizeof(dma_addr_t) is larger than
sizeof(struct page *), or to preserve the input parameters, we utilize a
memory region passed in by the caller.
Since the code is now prepared to handle the case where it cannot
perform address conversions on the stack, we no longer need the
!HIGHMEM64G dependency in drivers/dma/Kconfig.

i.MX3x SoCs contain an Image Processing Unit, consisting of a Control
Module (CM), Display Interface (DI), Synchronous Display Controller (SDC),
Asynchronous Display Controller (ADC), Image Converter (IC), Post-Filter
(PF), Camera Sensor Interface (CSI), and an Image DMA Controller (IDMAC).
CM contains, among other blocks, an Interrupt Generator (IG) and a Clock
and Reset Control Unit (CRCU). This driver serves IDMAC and IG. They are
supported over dmaengine and irq-chip APIs respectively.
IDMAC is a specialised DMA controller, its DMA channels cannot be used for
general-purpose operations, even though it might be possible to configure
a memory-to-memory channel for memcpy operation. This driver will not work
with generic dmaengine clients, clients, wishing to use it must use
respective wrapper structures, they also must specify which channels they
require, as channels are hard-wired to specific IPU functions.

Modify the Freescale Elo / Elo Plus DMA driver so that it can be compiled as
a module.
The primary change is to stop treating the DMA controller as a bus, and the
DMA channels as devices on the bus. This is because the Open Firmware (OF)
kernel code does not allow busses to be removed, so although we can call
of_platform_bus_probe() to probe the DMA channels, there is no
of_platform_bus_remove(). Instead, the DMA channels are manually probed,
similar to what fsl_elbc_nand.c does.

This adds a driver for the Synopsys DesignWare DMA controller (aka
DMACA on AVR32 systems.) This DMA controller can be found integrated
on the AT32AP7000 chip and is primarily meant for peripheral DMA
transfer, but can also be used for memory-to-memory transfers.
This patch is based on a driver from David Brownell which was based on
an older version of the DMA Engine framework. It also implements the
proposed extensions to the DMA Engine API for slave DMA operations.
The dmatest client shows no problems, but there may still be room for
improvement performance-wise. DMA slave transfer performance is
definitely "good enough"; reading 100 MiB from an SD card running at ~20
MHz yields ~7.2 MiB/s average transfer rate.
Full documentation for this controller can be found in the Synopsys
DW AHB DMAC Databook:
http://www.synopsys.com/designware/docs/iip/DW_ahb_dmac/latest/doc/dw_ahb_dmac_db.pdf
The controller has lots of implementation options, so it's usually a
good idea to check the data sheet of the chip it's intergrated on as
well. The AT32AP7000 data sheet can be found here:

This client tests DMA memcpy using various lengths and various offsets
into the source and destination buffers. It will initialize both
buffers with a repeatable pattern and verify that the DMA engine copies
the requested region and nothing more. It will also verify that the
bytes aren't swapped around, and that the source buffer isn't modified.
The dmatest module can be configured to test a specific device, a
specific channel. It can also test multiple channels at the same time,
and it can start multiple threads competing for the same channel.
Changes since v2:
* Support testing multiple channels at the same time
* Support testing with multiple threads competing for the same channel
* Use counting test patterns in order to catch byte ordering issues

* Remove extra dashes around "help"
* Remove "default n" from Kconfig
* Turn TEST_BUF_SIZE into a module parameter
* Return DMA_NAK instead of DMA_DUP

The XOR engine found in Marvell's SoCs and system controllers
provides XOR and DMA operation, iSCSI CRC32C calculation, memory

This driver implements the DMA engine API and supports the following
capabilities:
- memcpy
- xor
- memset
The XOR engine can be used by DMA engine clients implemented in the
kernel, one of those clients is the RAID module. In that case, I
observed 20% improvement in the raid5 write throughput, and 40%
decrease in the CPU utilization when doing array construction, those
results obtained on an 5182 running at 500Mhz.
When enabling the NET DMA client, the performance decreased, so
meanwhile it is recommended to keep this client off.
