Booting using host port

Started by sram_777 May 21, 2002

Hi,
I was using Motorola's 68000 to boot 2181. Now I have to load
the 2191 DSP using 68000. In 2181 booting was done using IDMA. The
structure of DMA is different in the 2191. There are 2 DMA mode:

1. Direcr DMA mode 2. Host port DMA mode. Now to use descriptor
based DMA tranfer we have to load the I/O space with the appropriate
DMA descriptors. But in host port mode access cannot be made to I/O
space. Than how is booting done using host DMA mode. If anyone has an
idea about booting using host port mode, please let me know how to
set up booting using host port.
