DMA Transfers
Each link port supports a DMA channel.
Note that the link ports do not support internal to internal mem-
ory transfers like previous SHARCs (no link assignment register).
If internal to internal memory transfers are required, refer to
“External Port DMA” on page 3-65.
In standard DMA operations, the software needs to set up the DMA
parameter registers before the link port control register is configured.
After setting the DMA enable bit the transfer starts until the word count
reaches zero, the DMA has finished.
