They are from userspace.

???

DMA - via /dev/vme_dma0 interface

i.e. Buffersize 64K, 4K alignment, 2K PCI Fifo and 1K VME Fifo.
Using the Tundra driver and its interface structure, I used a 
request level of 2, fairmode is set to normal, timeon timeout timer
is set to 7 and timeoff is set to no waiting (0).
