Rosetta Stone for Unix This custom drawing feature now works in Mozilla, in Opera 7.0 or better, and in IE 5 or better for Solaris, HP-UX, or Windows. Use click, shift-click, control-click, and the "set" and "clear" buttons to select the desired subset of OSs. Then select "Draw table" to redraw the window with your custom table. Thanks to Mårten Svantesson <[email protected]> for the improved JavaScript. A Sysadmin's Unixersal Translator (ROSETTA STONE) OR What do they call that in this world? Contributions and corrections gratefully accepted. Please help us fill in the blanks. New "tasks" are welcome, too! PDF version (for best results print US legal size, landscape orientation.

  • Tigersharc DSP Hardware Specification, Revision 1.0.2, Direct Memory Access
    7 DIRECT MEMORY ACCESS Figure 7-0. Table 7-0. Listing 7-0. Overview Direct Memory Access (DMA) is a mechanism for transferring data with- out core being involved. The TigerSHARC® DSP’s on-chip DMA controller relieves the core processor of the burden of moving data between internal memory and an external device, external memory, or between link ports and internal or external memory. The fully-integrated DMA controller allows the TigerSHARC® DSP core processor, or an external device, to specify data transfer operations and return to normal processing while the DMA controller carries out the data transfers in the background. The TigerSHARC® DSP DMA competes with other masters for internal memory access. For more information, see “Architecture and Microarchi- tecture Overview” on page 6-7. This conflict is minimized due to the large internal memory bandwidth that is available. The DMA includes 14 DMA channels, four of which are dedicated to external memory devices, eight to link ports, and two to AutoDMA registers. TigerSHARC DSP Hardware Specification 7 - 1 Overview Figure 7-1 shows a block diagram of the TigerSHARC® DSP’s DMA controller. TRANSMITTER RECEIVER TCB TCB REGISTERS REGISTERS Internal DMA DMA CONTROLLER Bus Requests Interface Figure 7-1. DMA Block Diagram Data Transfers — General Information The DMA controller can perform several types of data transfers: • Internal memory ⇒ external memory and memory-mapped periph- erals • Internal memory ⇒ internal memory of other TigerSHARC® DSPs residing on the cluster bus • Internal memory ⇒ host processor • Internal memory ⇒ link port I/O • External memory ⇒ external peripherals 7 - 2 TigerSHARC DSP Hardware Specification Direct Memory Access • External memory ⇒ internal memory • External memory ⇒ link port I/O • Link port I/O ⇒ internal memory • Link port I/O ⇒ external memory • Cluster bus master via AutoDMA registers ⇒ internal memory Internal-to-internal memory transfers are not directly supported.
