Hello,

is there the possibility of using a DMA engine channel from userspace?

Something like:
- configure DMA using ioctl() (or whatever configuration mechanism)
- read() or write() to trigger the transfer


I may have supposedly promised Vinod to look into possibly providing something like this in the future. But I have not gotten around to do that yet. Currently, no such support.
