Hello,
I am vexed by the slow host to dsp xfer bandwidth of the falcon. The most I can achieve is 2.5mb/s and that's using polling which ties the main cpu up. I would like to know if anyone has overcome this problem, perhaps by using a small interupt like:
a5=memory to xfer
a6=dsp host port.w
move.w (a5)+,(a6)
rte
I suspect that there does not exist an ideal solution to this _in_software_.
However, perhaps by placing a small DMA device on the falcon expansion bus this could be overcome. The processor could fill a DMA buffer on the device quickly and move on to other things. Meanwhile, the DMA device on the expansion bus would move one word at a time to the DSP. This would be, then, a crude but simple device to provide DMA transfers at the fastest rate the DSP could take the data (~4mb/s?) with no hindrance to the main CPU.
Worth looking into? Waste of thought?

What's the anti-troll code? That's your personal code to be able to add comments and messages on the dhs.nu site.
Don't have a code or forgot it? Fix it here.
