dmae.rpl is the system library that provides DMA (Direct Memory Access) functions.
Functions
In the context of the DMAE library; timestamps (as OSTimes) are used to identify operations. They can be used with DMAEWaitDone for synchronisation.
Timing
| Prototype | Description |
|---|---|
OSTime DMAEGetRetiredTimeStamp();
|
|
OSTime DMAEGetLastSubmittedTimeStamp();
|
Returns the last timestamp submitted to the DMAE engine, as an OSTime. |
bool DMAEWaitDone(OSTime timestamp);
|
Wait until a given DMA operation is complete. |
void DMAESetTimeout(unsigned int timeout);
|
Set the timeout for DMA operations. |
unsigned int DMAEGetTimeout();
|
Gets the current timeout for DMA operations. |
Operations
| Prototype | Description |
|---|---|
OSTime DMAECopyMem(void* dst, void* src, size_t numDwords, DMAEEndianSwapMode endian);
|
Uses DMA to copy memory from one location to another. Note numDwords - the size should be given as bytes / 4.
|
OSTime DMAEFillMem(void* dst, unsigned int value, size_t numDwords);
|
Uses DMA to fill memory with a given value. Again, note numDwords. |
Enums
| Name | Definition |
|---|---|
| DMAEEndianSwapMode | typedef enum DMAEEndianSwapMode {
NONE = 0,
SWAP_8_IN_16 = 1,
SWAP_8_IN_32 = 2,
} DMAEEndianSwapMode; |
