Xilinx 1G/2.5G Ethernet Subsystem provides 32-bit AXI4-Stream buses to move transmit and receive Ethernet data to and from the subsystem. These buses are designed to be used with an AXI Direct Memory Access(DMA) IP or AXI Multichannel Direct Memory Access (MCDMA) IP core, AXI4-Stream Data FIFO, or any other custom logic in any supported device. Primary high-speed DMA data movement between system memory and stream target is through the AXI4 Read Master to AXI4 memory-mapped to stream (MM2S) Master, and AXI stream to memory-mapped (S2MM) Slave to AXI4 Write Master. AXI DMA/MCDMA enables channel of data movement on both MM2S and S2MM paths in scatter/gather mode. AXI DMA has two channels where as MCDMA has 16 Tx and 16 Rx channels. To uniquely identify each channel use 'chan' suffix. Depending on the usecase AXI ethernet driver can request any combination of multichannel DMA channels using generic dmas, dma-names properties. Example: dma-names = tx_chan0, rx_chan0, tx_chan1, rx_chan1; Signed-off-by: Radhey Shyam Pandey <radhey.shyam.pandey@amd.com> Reviewed-by: Krzysztof Kozlowski <krzysztof.kozlowski@linaro.org> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/1700074613-1977070-2-git-send-email-radhey.shyam.pandey@amd.com Signed-off-by: Jakub Kicinski <kuba@kernel.org>
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.
