void MI_DmaRecv16Async_SetUp( u32 dmaNo,
volatile const void* src,
void* dest,
u32 size,

MIDmaCallback callback,
void* arg );

Arguments

dmaNo DMA channel used.
src The transfer source address.
dest The transfer destination address.
size Transfer size.
callback Callback when DMA ends.
arg Callback argument when DMA ends.

Return Values

None.

Description

Uses DMA to receive data from the same address.
The function does not change the address of the transfer source. It increments only the transfer destination address and repeatedly receives data from a contiguous region.

The *_SetUp functions only configure the given settings without actually performing DMA. To actually start DMA, call the MI_DmaRestart function.

MI_DmaRecv16() and MI_DmaRecv16Async() transfer in 16-bit units. Both the transfer source address and the transfer destination address must be 2-byte aligned. MI_DmaRecv32() and MI_DmaRecv32Async() transfer in 32-bit units. Both the transfer source address and the transfer destination address must be 4-byte aligned.

MI_DmaRecv16() and MI_DmaRecv32() wait within the function until DMA completes. MI_DmaRecv16Async() and MI_DmaRecv32Async() call the callback function when DMA ends. The callback, callback, is a MIDmaCallback type (a void type function that takes one void* argument). callback is called from the system DMA interrupt handler and therefore is called even if interrupts are prohibited.

It is necessary to understand how to use Async-type APIs in order to obtain maximum functionality. Refer to the MI_DmaCopy function for more information about this.


DMA Controller Bugs

See the section titled "DMA Controller Bugs" in the reference for the MI_DmaCopy function.

Internal Operation

Uses the following IO registers: DMAn source register (0x40000B0 + 12n), DMAn destination register (0x40000B4 + 12n), and DMAn control register (0x40000B8 + 12n). (n specifies the DMA channel.))
