As Nicolae Rosia explained there is no concept of address for this DMA. Connections are made at the design time. http://www.fpgadeveloper.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/08/fpga_developer_20140806_130447.png > > > > no dma_slave_config handler? > > No need of this callback earlier in the dma_slave_config we are doing > > terminate_all Now we have a separate API for that so no need to have this > call back. > > The question was on parameters There is no address related parameters need to configure for this DMA. That's why no need of dma_slave_config handler.
