Hi ,
I am implementing DMA transfers initiated by the processor for the MPC8245.
Since the standard pci_alloc_consistent take only a pci_dev structure but no
addresses, I added a configuration function to set the target address (PCI)
and the other parameters.
I can see that the DMA transfer is started, and finished (an interrupt is
generated) but I don't see the data copied on the target device ( DSP with a 4
MB memory window on PCI bus.)
My question is : What type of addreess must I give to configure the DMA
controller.
Are there also caching issues that may prevent good read/write operation
s? I suppose that the flushing og the cache done in pci_alloc_consistent is
enough.
Thanks
