One of the DMAs introduced with AM64 is the Packet DMA (PKTDMA). It serves similar purpose as K3 UDMAP channels in packet mode, but with notable differences, like tflow support and channels being allocated to service specific peripherals. The rings for the PKTDMA is integrated within the DMA itself instead of using rings from the general purpose ringacc. PKTDMA can be used to service PSI-L peripherals, similarly to K3 UDMA channels. Most of the driver code can be reused for PKTDMA tchan/rchan support but new setup and allocation functions are needed to handle the differences between the DMAs.

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.
