Hello,
The QDMA subsystem is used in conjunction with the PCI Express IP block
to provide high performance data transfer between host memory and the
card's DMA subsystem.

Comparing to AMD/Xilinx XDMA subsystem,
https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/Y+XeKt5yPr1nGGaq@matsya/
the QDMA subsystem is a queue based, configurable scatter-gather DMA
implementation which provides thousands of queues, support for multiple
physical/virtual functions with single-root I/O virtualization (SR-IOV),
and advanced interrupt support. In this mode the IP provides AXI4-MM and
AXI4-Stream user interfaces which may be configured on a per-queue basis.
The QDMA has been used for Xilinx Alveo PCIe devices.

This patch series is to provide the platform driver for AMD QDMA subsystem
to support AXI4-MM DMA transfers. More functions, such as AXI4-Stream
and SR-IOV, will be supported by future patches.
The device driver for any FPGA based PCIe device which leverages QDMA can
call the standard dmaengine APIs to discover and use the QDMA subsystem
without duplicating the QDMA driver code in its own driver.
Changes since v1:
- Minor changes from code review comments.
- Fixed kernel robot warning.
