Hello,
I am running on an MPC8360 board with u-boot-2009.06 and linux-2.6.26-13.
The board is booting from nor flash and then u-boot configures UPM-A for
compact flash in true-IDE mode
(based on the design of the MPC8349ITX eval board). The IRQ used is IRQ6.
I got this setup going fine, but now I wish to enable DMA support to the
compact flash to speed it up.
The HW wired the compact flash's DMA_DREQ and DMA_DACK to the CPUs DMA_DREQ3
(PC[17]) and DMA_DACK3 (PC[0]).
I added this in u-boot to configure the pins to their DMA functions:
/* DMA Controller, channel 3 for compact flash */
{2, 0, 1, 0, 1}, /* DMA_DACK3n / PTP_ALARM1 */
{2, 17, 2, 0, 2}, /* DMA_DREQ3n / PTP_PPS2 */
In the dtb, I added the following for dma and compact flash
d...@82a8 {
#address-cells = <1>;
#size-cells = <1>;
compatible = "fsl,elo-dma";
reg = <0x82a8 4>;
ranges = <0 0x8100 0x1a8>;
interrupt-parent = <&ipic>;
interrupts = <0x47 8>;
cell-index = <0>;
/* The dma-channels are offset from 0x8100 */
dma-chan...@0 {
compatible = "fsl,elo-dma-channel";
reg = <0 0x80>;
interrupt-parent = <&ipic>;
interrupts = <0x47 8>;
};
dma-chan...@80 {
compatible = "fsl,elo-dma-channel";
reg = <0x80 0x80>;
interrupt-parent = <&ipic>;
interrupts = <0x47 8>;
};
dma-chan...@100 {
compatible = "fsl,elo-dma-channel";
reg = <0x100 0x80>;
interrupt-parent = <&ipic>;
interrupts = <0x47 8>;
};
dma-chan...@180 {
compatible = "fsl,elo-dma-channel";
reg = <0x180 0x28>;
interrupt-parent = <&ipic>;
interrupts = <0x47 8>;
};
}; /* d...@82a8 */
/* CS2 = Compact FLash in PATA/IDE connection */
p...@2,0 {
device_type = "ata";
compatible = "ata-generic";
reg = <0x2 0x0 0x10 0x2 0x20c 0x4>;
reg-shift = <0x1>;
pio-mode = <0x6>;
interrupts = <0x16 0x8>;
interrupt-parent = <&ipic>;
};
I enabled the kernel's CONFIG_ATA, CONFIG_ATA_SFF, CONFIG_PATA_PLATFORM,
CONFIG_PATA_OF_PLATFORM for the CF
I also enabled CONFIG_DMADEVICES and CONFIG_FSL_DMA
with all this in place, I got this on boot:

[snip]
However, I don't think the CPU is using DMA channel 3 to speed up CF access
I tried doing "dd if=/dev/sda5 of=/dev/sda7 bs=4KB"
which copied 493MB at 2.5 MB/s with top showing about 75% CPU usage.
So, what am I missing?
(my guess is the glue between the DMA engine and the Compact flash,
but I'm not sure how to hook it up).
Thank you very much for everyone's time.
