Hi,

The current upstream version of IIO does not have built-in support for DMA, 
but you can always create your custom buffer implementation that handles the 
DMA.

There is a out of tree generic DMA[0] and DMAengine[1] support for IIO. This 
is both scheduled for mainline submission, but obviously will not be 
available in a 3.8.7 kernel.
