- Lines: 9

- I am writing a device driver for Z8530 chip on SUN/Sparc machines but
- unfortunately I do not have enough information about the hardware details.
- Does anybody know whether there is a support for DMA block transfer (uses
- REQUEST line on Z8530) or CPU block transfer (uses WAIT line on Z8530) for
- Z8530 chip on sparc machines ? And if DMA is supported how can I use it ?
- Any peace of informatrion will help. Thank you in advance.
