I've met a problem associats with DMA, i want to receive data from UART through DMA, and store the data into a buffer in on_chipram.
As the handbook says, the alt_dma_rxchan_ioctl() function must been called correctly before can receive data. downside is my program, i don't know is it proper to call the function in that way, at least it doesn't work!
