Introduction

The Soft IP DMA (AXI DMA/CDMA/MCDMA/VDMA) driver is available as part of the Xilinx Linux distribution and in open source Linux as drivers/dma/xilinx_dma.c

HW IP features

AXI DMA

The AXI Direct Memory Access (AXI DMA) IP provides high-bandwidth direct memory access between the AXI4 memory mapped and AXI4-Stream-type target peripherals. Its optional scatter-gather capabilities also offload data movement tasks from the Central Processing Unit (CPU) in processor-based systems. Initialization, status, and management registers are accessed through an AXI4-Lite slave interface.

AXI4 and AXI4-Stream compliant
Optional Scatter/Gather (SG) DMA support. When Scatter/gather mode is not selected the IP operates in Simple DMA mode.
Primary AXI4 Memory Map and AXI4-Stream data width support of 32, 64, 128, 256, 512, and 1024 bits
Optional Data Re-Alignment Engine
Optional AXI Control and Status Streams
Optional Keyhole support
Optional Micro DMA mode support
Support for up to 64-bit Addressing

Features supported in the driver

Optional Scatter/Gather (SG) DMA support. When Scatter/gather mode is not selected the IP operates in Simple DMA mode.
Primary AXI4 Memory Map and AXI4-Stream data width support of 32, 64, 128, 256, 512, and 1024 bits
Optional Data Re-Alignment Engine
Optional AXI Control and Status Streams
64-bit Addressing support

Note: Multi-channel mode is no longer a supported mode of operation for AXI DMA.

AXI CDMA

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.

AXI4 Compliant
Primary AXI Memory Map data width support of 32, 64, 128, and 256 bits
Primary AXI Stream data width support of 8, 16, 32, 64, 128, and 256 bits
Optional Data Re-Alignment Engine
Optional Gen-Lock Synchronization
Independent, asynchronous channel operation
Provides Simple DMA only mode and an optional hybrid mode supporting both Simple DMA and Scatter-Gather automation
Optional Store and Forward operation mode with internal Data FIFO (First In First Out)

Features supported in the driver

Optional Scatter/Gather (SG) DMA support. When Scatter/gather mode is not selected the IP operates in Simple DMA mode.
Primary AXI4 Memory Map and AXI4-Stream data width support of 32, 64, 128, 256, 512, and 1024 bits
Optional Data Re-Alignment Engine
64-bit Addressing Support
Simple DMA mode
Scatter-Gather DMA mode

AXI VDMA

The AXI Video Direct Memory Access (AXI VDMA) core is a soft Xilinx IP core that provides high-bandwidth direct memory access between memory and AXI4-Stream type video target peripherals. The core provides efficient two dimensional DMA operations with independent asynchronous read and write channel operation. Initialization, status, interrupt and management registers are accessed through an AXI4-Lite slave interface.

64-bit Addressing

Features supported in the driver

Support for maximum 32 frame buffers
64-bit Addressing

AXI MCMDA

The AXI Multichannel Direct Memory Access (AXI MCDMA) core is a soft Xilinx IP core for use with the Xilinx Vivado Design Suite. The AXI MCDMA provides high-bandwidth direct memory access between memory and AXI4-Stream target peripherals. The AXI MCDMA core provides Scatter Gather (SG) interface with multiple channel support with independent configuration

AXI4 data width support of 32, 64, 128, 256, 512, and 1,024 bits

Kernel Configuration

The following config options should be enabled in order to build SoftIP DMA'S(AXI DMA/CDMA/VDMA/MCMDA) driver
CONFIG_DMADEVICES
CONFIG_XILINX_DMA

The driver is available at,
https://github.com/Xilinx/linux-xlnx/blob/master/drivers/dma/xilinx/xilinx_dma.c

Devicetree

The device tree node for AXI DMA/CDMA/MCMDA/VDMA will be automatically generated, if the core is configured in the HW design, using the Device Tree BSP.

Steps to generate device-tree is documented here,
http://www.wiki.xilinx.com/Build+Device+Tree+Blob

And a sample binding is shown below and the description of DT property is documented here

Test Procedure

AXI DMA and MCDMA

A separate test case is provided to test the functionality of IP which assumes the IP streaming interfaces are connected back-to-back in the HW design.

The test client is designed to transfer the data on the streaming interface (MM2S) and compares the data received on another interface (S2MM).

This test client is available in the Linux source at, https://github.com/Xilinx/linux-xlnx/blob/master/drivers/dma/xilinx/axidmatest.c

NOTE: In ZynqMP vivado design it is mandatory to enable high address=1 (Zynq Ultrascale+ MPSoC customization-> PS-PL configuration-> Address Fragmentation-> High Address)

and set AXI DMA/AXI MCMDA address width=40 bits. For detail please refer: http://www.wiki.xilinx.com/PL+Masters

The test client can be configured as loadable or in-built kernel module.

NOTE: For MCMDA, MM2S channel(write/tx) ID start from '0' and is in [0-15] range. S2MM channel(read/rx) ID start from '16' and is in [16-31] range. These channels ID are fixed irrespective of IP configuration.

Running the test client will display the message when the test is successful,
