From: Cyrille Pitchen <cyrille.pitchen@xxxxxxxxx> According to the Atmel eXtended DMA controller datasheet, requesting a DMA transfer flush for a channel is only revelant when this transfer is source peripheral synchronized. So we have to check this condition before requesting a channel flush by writing the channel bit into the Global channel SoftWare Flush (GSWF) register then waiting for flush to complete by monitoring the end of Flush Interrupt Status (FIS) bit in the Channel Interrupt Status (CIS) register. Indeed, for non source peripheral synchronized transfer, writing the channel bit into the GSWF register does nothing. Especially, the FIS bit is never set into the CIS register. The former code looped forever waiting for this bit to be set.
