Currently the DW eDMA driver only supports the linked lists memory allocated locally with respect to the remote eDMA engine setup. It means the linked lists will be accessible by the CPU via the MMIO space only. If eDMA is embedded into the DW PCIe Root Ports or local Endpoints (which support will be added in subsequent commits) the linked lists are supposed to be allocated in the CPU memory. In that case the LL-entries can be directly accessed, while the former case implies using the MMIO accessors for that. In order to have both cases supported by the driver, the dw_edma_region descriptor should be fixed to contain the MMIO-backed and just memory-based virtual addresses. The linked lists initialization procedure will use one of them depending on the eDMA device nature. If the eDMA engine is embedded into the local DW PCIe Root Port/Endpoint controllers, the list entries will be directly accessed by referencing the corresponding structure fields. Otherwise the MMIO accessors usage will be preserved.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
