Abstract

Examples herein describe performing non-sequential DMA read and writes. Rather than storing data sequentially, a DMA engine can write data into memory using non-sequential memory addresses. A data processing engine (DPE) controller can submit a first job using first parameters that instruct the DMA engine to store data using a first non-sequential write pattern. The DPE controller can also submit a second job using second parameters that instruct the DMA engine to store data using a second, different non-sequential write pattern. In this manner, the DMA engine can switch to performing DMA writes using different non-sequential patterns. Similarly, the DMA engine can use non-sequential reads to retrieve data from memory. When performing a first DMA read, the DMA engine can retrieve data from memory using a first sequential pattern and then perform a second DMA read where data is retrieved from memory using a second non-sequential read pattern.
