<p>To create a port of the DMA Framework, you must create an implementation
of the PSL for the DMA controller hardware.</p>
<section id="GUID-8664FA8F-E53A-5DBA-999F-A0B800C1F54B"><title>Define and
implement PSL-specific channel classes</title> <p>The choice of class to be
used for implementing DMA channels is governed by the mode of operation to
be supported: </p> <ul>

</ul> <p>These three classes are defined in <filepath>dma.h</filepath>. </p> <p>In
addition, the PSL may need to store channel-specific data. One way of achieving
this is by deriving a PSL-specific class from one of the generic ones. For
example, the template scatter-gather implementation defines a <codeph>TTemplateSgChannel</codeph> class
derived from <codeph>TDmaSgChannel</codeph> for storing data when appending
new descriptors to a running channel: </p> <codeblock id="GUID-C4807321-01A3-5893-800A-6E22B8B5E131" xml:space="preserve">class TTemplateSgChannel : public TDmaSgChannel

channel allocator</title> <p>Channel allocation is implemented in the PSL
(platform-specific layer) because this is a hardware-specific operation. There
are two basic options: </p> <ul>
<li id="GUID-A9246754-F21B-5BFC-9FDB-2CE5C92D1FA3"><p>Preallocate, at design
time, one channel per DMA-aware peripheral. This is the simplest approach,
and it should be acceptable for most Symbian platform devices because the
set of supported peripherals is closed. In this case, cookies passed by client
device drivers map uniquely to DMA channels. </p> </li>
<li id="GUID-C1164FA0-9B70-55C1-9C5A-2D02728FA67A"><p>Full dynamic allocation.
This is a simple approach too, but DMA channels are, in general, not completely
identical. For example, some channels may have greater priorities than others. </p> </li>
</ul> <p>Mixed schemes are also possible, for example, client device driver
cookies could be used to select a subset of channels, and dynamic allocation
used inside this subset. </p> <p>Whatever option is chosen, the PSL must provide
an implementation for the function <xref href="GUID-176B8E0D-0422-341B-A134-7C85432E1303.dita#GUID-176B8E0D-0422-341B-A134-7C85432E1303/GUID-934F46B3-1DF9-3870-87EE-A8E2DEF82810"><apiname>DmaChannelMgr::Open()</apiname></xref>.

a DMA channel if the channel has not been previously allocated. Note that
