    net: lan966x: Add FDMA functionality · c8349639
    Horatiu Vultur authored
    Ethernet frames can be extracted or injected to or from the device's
    DDR memory. There is one channel for injection and one channel for
    extraction. Each of these channels contain a linked list of DCBs which
    contains DB. The DCB contains only 1 DB for both the injection and
    extraction. Each DB contains a frame. Every time when a frame is received
    or transmitted an interrupt is generated.
    
    It is not possible to use both the FDMA and the manual
    injection/extraction of the frames. Therefore the FDMA has priority over
    the manual because of better performance values.
