DMA: Input/Ouput LLI control
Rev 1.0
Hello, and welcome to this presentation which describes
the control of the input and output signals of the GPDMA
and LPDMA channels.

Flexible intra/inter channel synchronization at LLI level
Programmable input control
Request selection
Trigger selection
Trigger mode vs transfer granularity
Data (block, 2D block, single/burst) or link
Programmable output control
Event generation vs transfer granularity
Data (block, 2D block) or LLI or channel
Transfer complete hardware signal generation
Possibly used as trigger input of another channel
No need to be cleared, unlike the flag

The DMA_CxTR2 register defines the input control
(request, trigger events) and the output control (transfer
complete event) of the transfer handled by the channel x
at the LLI level.
This enables a flexible event-driven and hardware-based
scheduling of a transfer under the global control of the
software.
In the figure, a timer is used to trigger the transfer of the
data received by the SPI module. When this transfer
completes, a link to LLI2 is performed. The LLI2 handles
an I2C transmission.
When this transfer completes, a link is performed to
restore the settings related to the SPI receive transfer.
When the next timeout occurs, this sequence repeats.
The inputs of a DMA channel are:
