QDMA and Cache C6713 - meir_kenigsztein - Dec 8 15:26:00 2005

Hi,

I'm using the QDMA on the C6713 - It seems that I have to do a
Cache_clean() of the SDRAM before each copy with the QDMA.

(The copy is done from the IRAM to the cachable SDRAM)

Does it make sense ? I couldn't find it in TI manuals.

Thanks

Meir.

Re: QDMA and Cache C6713 - Mike Dunn - Dec 8 19:58:00 2005

Hello Meir,

TI mentions in several places [they have some good app
notes on the subject] that there are issues related to
'cache-able' memory and DMA transfers. The bottom
line is [as I see it] that the cache is a 'CPU cache'
and not a 'memory access cache'. DMA transfers do not
go through the CPU, therefore they are not cached.
