Some SoCs (like TI DRA7x) have more peripherals +integrated with DMA requests than what the DMA controller can handle directly. + +Required property: +- dma-masters: phandle of the DMA controller or list of phandles for + the DMA controllers the router can direct the signal to. +- #dma-cells: Must be at least 1.

This + typically contains a DMA request line number or a + channel number, but can contain any data that is + required for configuring a channel. +- dma-names: Contains one identifier string for each DMA specifier in + the dmas property. The specific strings that can be used + are defined in the binding of the DMA client device. + Multiple DMA specifiers can be used to represent + alternatives and in this case the dma-names for those + DMA specifiers must be identical (see examples). + +Examples: + +1.

A single read-write channel with three alternative DMA controllers: + + dmas = <&dma1 5 + &dma2 7 + &dma3 2>; + dma-names = "rx-tx", "rx-tx", "rx-tx"; + +3. A device with three channels, one of which has two alternatives: + + dmas = <&dma1 2 /* read channel */ + &dma1 3 /* write channel */ + &dma2 0 /* error read */ + &dma3 0>; /* alternative error read */ + dma-names = "rx", "tx", "error", "error"; |
