For an application my company is looking at doing, we need to develop
some expertise with DMA transfers on AT clones.  The problem at hand involves
putting a DMA device in a pipe that would take data in memory, pass it
through the DMA device, and back into memory, all without processor
involvement.  The amount of data involved is quite large, and local
buffers on the DMA device relatively small, so it would be a real pipe,
involving interleaved reads and writes, on different DMA channels.

What I would like from the net is pointers to good references on DMA
programming.  Thanks in advance.
