Corelink DMA Engines

XDMA cannot access the ARM9 bootrom at all.

DmaConfig

Size of struct is 24 bytes.

struct DmaConfig {
    sint8_t channel_sel; // @0 Selects which DMA channel to use: 0-7, -1 = don't care.
    uint8_t endian_swap_size; // @1 Accepted values: 0=none, 2=16bit, 4=32bit, 8=64bit.
    uint8_t flags; // @2 bit0: SRC_IS_PERIPHERAL, bit1: DST_IS_PERIPHERAL, bit2: SHALL_BLOCK, bit3: KEEP_ALIVE, bit6: SRC_IS_RAM, bit7: DST_IS_RAM
    uint8_t padding;
    DmaSubConfig dst_cfg;
    DmaSubConfig src_cfg;
}

struct DmaSubConfig {
    sint8_t peripheral_id; // @0 If not *_IS_RAM set, this must be < 0x1E.
    uint8_t allowed_burst_sizes; // @1 Accepted values: 4, 8, 4|8 = 12, 1|2|4|8 = 15 
    sint16_t gather_granule_size; // @2
    sint16_t gather_stride; // @4 Has to be >= 0, must not be 0 if peripheral_id == 0xFF.
    sint16_t scatter_granule_size; // @6
    sint16_t scatter_stride; // @8 Can be negative.
}

If SRC_IS_PERIPHERAL/SRC_IS_PERIPHERAL is set in the flags field, the configuration for src/dst is loaded from src_cfg/dst_cfg respectively and the transfer will be done from/to a fixed address. If the *_IS_RAM flag is set same thing goes, except byte0 of each cfg is forced to 0xFF (RAM) and the transfer will be done from/to an incrementing address. *_IS_RAM has priority over _IS_PERIPHERAL.

If neither *_IS_PERIPHERAL or *_IS_RAM is set, default configuration is loaded:

.peripheral_id = 0xFF,
.allowed_burst_sizes = 1 | 2 | 4 | 8,
.gather_granule_size = 0x80,
.gather_stride = 0,
.scatter_granule_size = 0x80,
.scatter_stride = 0,

If SHALL_BLOCK is set, the thread will sleep until the DMA engine is ready. If not set, the SVC will return 0xD04007F0 if the DMA channel is busy.

The generated bytecode starts with a FLUSHP on the peripheral_ids for src/dst (if specified). After that, it always moves 0 into DAR. Then it moves the src/dst addresses into SAR/DAR respectively...
