host software can sense the MCR1_FULL and MCR2_FULL flags in the DMA Status CSR, bits 30 and 27 respectively.

These flags are zero when their respective MCR FIFO can accommodate at least one new MCR address.

Figure 2: BCM5812 Programming Overview

Each packet descriptor entry is 32 bytes long, and contains a pointer to a command context structure along with initial input

and output fragment chain entries. The chain entry structures are buffer descriptors used to support input and output scatter-

gather operations. Each provides the address and length, in bytes, of a buffer fragment, and a pointer to a next fragment

chain entry. The packet descriptor also supplies the total length of the input. Figure 4 on page 4 diagrams the format of a

packet descriptor.

The command context indicates the actual operation to be performed. The first 32-bit word is common to all command

context types, and indicates the operation to be performed and the total length of the command context structure itself, in
