I have been all over the website looking for information related to the (vendor/device - 8086/6f50) IO AT DMA driver BAR register usage. I have been unable to find anything useful yet. Where is the DMA driver documented?

This request has been difficult to find since it seems that is not publicly available. I will do my best to get this information for you.

 

I am still searching for this information but if you have the model number of the Intel component I would appreciate the details.

In order to expedite this request, I will need the Intel product model number. I would appreciate if you have that information.

I did find the documentation, at least part of it. I found the first two volumes of the Xeon-D specification documents. I am still not finding the description for the DMA descriptor structure.

Yes, I had already found those links, but I have not been able to find the description for the contents pointed to by the CHAINADDR (CBBAROFFSET 90). I know it contains the length, source, destination, next descriptor, but a complete description of the descriptor is what I am looking for. I expected it to be in the volume 2 document, or at the offset, a link to the description or something, but I am still not finding it.

I have been trying to get this thread updated and I was able to find some information about DMA Operation on page 67

Please confirm if this is the information you have previously requested.

I was wondering if you were able to find the information through the link I posted earlier?

I fail to see how page 67 of Volume 1's documentation tells me how the DMA descriptors format is defined. I expect to see a structure of some sort. Something that shows the transfer size, source and destination addresses.
