NAME
       ddi_dma_lim_sparc, ddi_dma_lim - SPARC DMA limits structure

SYNOPSIS
       #include <sys/ddidmareq.h>

INTERFACE LEVEL
       Solaris  SPARC  DDI  specific (Solaris SPARC DDI). These interfaces are
       obsolete.

DESCRIPTION
       This page describes the SPARC version of the ddi_dma_lim structure. See
       ddi_dma_lim_x86(9S) for a description of the x86 version of this struc‐
       ture.


       A ddi_dma_lim structure describes in a  generic  fashion  the  possible
       limitations  of  a device's DMA engine. This information is used by the
       system when it attempts to set up DMA resources for a device.

STRUCTURE MEMBERS
         uint_t  dlim_addr_lo; /* low range of 32 bit
                                                addressing capability */
         uint_t  dlim_addr_hi;    /* inclusive upper bound of address.
                                      capability */
         uint_t  dlim_cntr_max;   /* inclusive upper bound of
                                     dma engine address limit * /
         uint_t  dlim_burstsizes; /* binary encoded dma burst sizes */
         uint_t  dlim_minxfer;    /* minimum effective dma xfer size */
         uint_t  dlim_dmaspeed;   /* average dma data rate (kb/s) */



       The dlim_addr_lo and dlim_addr_hi fields specify the address range  the
       device's  DMA  engine  can access. The dlim_addr_lo field describes the
       lower 32-bit boundary of the  device's  DMA  engine,  the  dlim_addr_hi
       describes the inclusive upper 32-bit boundary. The system allocates DMA
       resources in a way that the address for programming  the  device's  DMA
       engine  (see  ddi_dma_cookie(9S)  or  ddi_dma_htoc(9F))  is within this
       range. For example, if your device can access the whole 32-bit  address
       range,  you  may  use  [0,0xFFFFFFFF]. If your device has just a 16-bit
       address register but will access the top of the 32-bit  address  range,
       then [0xFFFF0000,0xFFFFFFFF] is the right limit.


       The  dlim_cntr_max  field  describes  an  inclusive upper bound for the
       device's DMA engine address register. This handles a fairly common case
       where  a  portion of the address register is only a latch rather than a
       full register. For example, the upper 8 bits of a 32-bit address regis‐
       ter  can  be  a  latch. This splits the address register into a portion
       that acts as a true address register (24 bits) for a 16  Mbyte  segment
       and  a  latch (8 bits) to hold a segment number. To describe these lim‐
       its, specify 0xFFFFFF in the dlim_cntr_max structure.


       The dlim_burstsizes  field  describes  the  possible  burst  sizes  the
       device's  DMA engine can accept. At the time of a DMA resource request,
       this element defines the  possible  DMA  burst  cycle  sizes  that  the
       requester's  DMA  engine  can  handle. The format of the data is binary
       encoding of burst sizes assumed to be powers of two. That is, if a  DMA
       engine  is  capable  of  doing  1-,  2-, 4-, and 16-byte transfers, the
       encoding ix 0x17. If the device is an SBus device and can  take  advan‐
       tage  of a 64-bit SBus, the lower 16 bits are used to specify the burst
       size for 32-bit transfers and the upper 16 bits are used to specify the
       burst  size for 64-bit transfers. As the resource request is handled by
       the system, the burstsizes value can be modified. Prior to enabling DMA
       for  the  specific  device,  the driver that owns the DMA engine should
       check (using ddi_dma_burstsizes(9F)) what the allowed  burstsizes  have
       become and program the DMA engine appropriately.


       The  dlim_minxfer  field  describes  the minimum effective DMA transfer
       size (in units of bytes). It must be a power of two. This value  speci‐
       fies  the  minimum  effective granularity of the DMA engine. It is dis‐
       tinct from dlim_burstsizes in that it describes the minimum  amount  of
       access  a  DMA  transfer will effect. dlim_burstsizes describes in what
       electrical fashion the DMA engine might  perform  its  accesses,  while
       dlim_minxfer describes the minimum amount of memory that can be touched
       by the DMA transfer. As a resource request is handled  by  the  system,
       the  dlim_minxfer  value  can  be modified contingent upon the presence
       (and use) of I/O caches and DMA write buffers in between the DMA engine
       and the object that DMA is being performed on. After DMA resources have
       been allocated, the resultant minimum  transfer  value  can  be  gotten
       using ddi_dma_devalign(9F).


       The  field  dlim_dmaspeed is the expected average data rate for the DMA
       engine (in units of kilobytes per second). Note that this should not be
       the maximum, or peak, burst data rate, but a reasonable guess as to the
       average throughput. This field is entirely optional and can be left  as
       zero.  Its  intended use is to provide some hints about how much of the
       DMA resource this device might need.
