Software Programming Model
This section describes the programming model for the DMA controller, including the register map and
software declarations to access the hardware. For Nios II processor users, Altera provides HAL system
library drivers that enable you to access the DMA controller core using the HAL API for DMA devices.
HAL System Library Support
The Altera-provided driver implements a HAL DMA device driver that integrates into the HAL system
library for Nios II systems. HAL users should access the DMA controller via the familiar HAL API, rather
than accessing the registers directly.
If your program uses the HAL device driver to access the DMA controller, accessing the device registers
directly interferes with the correct behavior of the driver.
The HAL DMA driver provides both ends of the DMA process; the driver registers itself as both a receive
channel (alt_dma_rxchan) and a transmit channel (alt_dma_txchan). The Nios II Software Develope’s
Handbook provides complete details of the HAL system library and the usage of DMA devices.
ioctl() Operations
ioctl() operation requests are defined for both the receive and transmit channels, which allows you to
control the hardware-dependent aspects of the DMA controller. Two ioctl() functions are defined for
the receiver driver and the transmitter driver: alt_dma_rxchan_ioctl() and alt_dma_txchan_ioctl().
The table below lists the available operations. These are valid for both the transmit and receive channels.

Request Meaning
ALT_DMA_SET_MODE_8 Transfers data in units of 8 bits. The parameter arg is ignored.
ALT_DMA_SET_MODE_16 Transfers data in units of 16 bits. The parameter arg is ignored.
ALT_DMA_SET_MODE_32 Transfers data in units of 32 bits. The parameter arg is ignored.
ALT_DMA_SET_MODE_64 Transfers data in units of 64 bits. The parameter arg is ignored.
ALT_DMA_SET_MODE_128 Transfers data in units of 128 bits. The parameter arg is ignored.
ALT_DMA_RX_ONLY_ON
(1)
Sets a DMA receiver into streaming mode. In this case, data is read
continuously from a single location. The parameter arg specifies the
address to read from.
ALT_DMA_RX_ONLY_OFF
(1)
Turns off streaming mode for a receive channel. The parameter arg is
ignored.
ALT_DMA_TX_ONLY_ON
(1)
Sets a DMA transmitter into streaming mode. In this case, data is
written continuously to a single location. The parameter arg specifies
the address to write to.
ALT_DMA_TX_ONLY_OFF
(1)
Turns off streaming mode for a transmit channel. The parameter arg is
ignored.
