nxp,edma

Vendor: NXP Semiconductors

Note

An implementation of a driver matching this compatible is available in drivers/dma.

Description

These nodes are “dma” bus nodes.

NXP enhanced Direct Memory Access (eDMA) node

Properties

Properties not inherited from the base binding file.

Details

valid-channels

array

Use this property to specify which channel indexes are
to be considered valid. The difference between this
property and "dma-channels" is the fact that this
property allows you to have "gaps" between the channel
indexes. This is useful in cases where you know you're
not going to be using all of the possible channels, thus
leading to a more readable DTS. Of course, this property
and "dma-channels" are mutually exclusive, meaning you
can't specify both properties as this will lead to a
BUILD_ASSERT() failure.

#dma-cells

int

Number of items to expect in a DMA specifier

This property is required.

Constant value: 2

dma-channel-mask

int

Bitmask of available DMA channels in ascending order that are
not reserved by firmware and are available to the
kernel. i.e. first channel corresponds to LSB.

dma-channels

int

Number of DMA channels supported by the controller

dma-requests

int

Number of DMA request signals supported by the controller.

dma-buf-addr-alignment

int

Memory address alignment requirement for DMA buffers used by the controller.

dma-buf-size-alignment

int

Memory size alignment requirement for DMA buffers used by the controller.

dma-copy-alignment

int

Minimal chunk of data possible to be copied by the controller.
