Detailed Description

DMA abstraction library APIs. Based on UEFI PCI IO protocol DMA abstractions. At some point these functions will probably end up in a non PCI protocol for embedded systems.

DMA Bus Master Read Operation: Call DmaMap() for MapOperationBusMasterRead. Program the DMA Bus Master with the DeviceAddress returned by DmaMap(). Start the DMA Bus Master. Wait for DMA Bus Master to complete the read operation. Call DmaUnmap().

DMA Bus Master Write Operation: Call DmaMap() for MapOperationBusMasterWrite. Program the DMA Bus Master with the DeviceAddress returned by DmaMap(). Start the DMA Bus Master. Wait for DMA Bus Master to complete the write operation. Call DmaUnmap().

DMA Bus Master Common Buffer Operation: Call DmaAllocateBuffer() to allocate a common buffer. Call DmaMap() for MapOperationBusMasterCommonBuffer. Program the DMA Bus Master with the DeviceAddress returned by DmaMap(). The common buffer can now be accessed equally by the processor and the DMA bus master. Call DmaUnmap(). Call DmaFreeBuffer().

Enumeration Type Documentation

◆ DMA_MAP_OPERATION

enum DMA_MAP_OPERATION

Enumerator
MapOperationBusMasterRead	A read operation from system memory by a bus master.
MapOperationBusMasterWrite	A write operation from system memory by a bus master.
MapOperationBusMasterCommonBuffer	Provides both read and write access to system memory by both the processor and a bus master. The buffer is coherent from both the processor's and the bus master's point of view.
