The AXI CMDA core is a soft Xilinx IP core for use with the Xilinx Vivado® Design Suite. The AXI CDMA provides high-bandwidth Direct Memory Access (DMA) between a memory-mapped source address and a memory-mapped destination address using the AXI4 protocol. An optional Scatter Gather (SG) feature can be used to offload control and sequencing tasks from the system CPU. Initialization, status, and control registers are accessed through an AXI4-Lite slave interface. For more information, please refer to the AXI CDMA product page which includes links to the official documentation and resource utilization.
...
The source code for the driver is included with the Vitis Unified Software Platform installation, as well as being available in the Xilinx Github repository. <If there are multiple drivers supporting this IP, we should make that statement here and add to the table>

Note: AMD Xilinx embeddedsw build flow is changed from 2023.2 release to adapt to the new system device tree based flow. For further information, refer to the wiki page Porting embeddedsw components to system device tree (SDT) based flow - Xilinx Wiki - Confluence (atlassian.net).
The .yaml(in data folder) and CMakeLists.txt(in src folder) files are needed for the System Device Tree based flow. The Driver .tcl and .mdd files are for the older build flow which will be deprecated in the future.
