DMA transfer is completed before transmitting all the data to SRAM (or data is corrupted)

[EPerr.1]

I am currently working on a touch screen for one of our products.

I built an LCD intel 8080 driver with the FMC and it's not working with DMA.

The image is only partially flushed to the screen.

It seems that there is some kind of limits to the transfer size that i don't know of ?

The use of the DMA is major to our application performance as printing a full screens takes 22ms in blocking mode.

I use a Frame buffer of 307200B the size of the screen. In the below example, code structure doesn't allow differences in the buffer data used by the API DMA/NODMA.

WITHOUT DMA

-Code:

CONFIGURATION

 

RUN

HAL_StatusTypeDef res = HAL_SRAM_Write_8b(&hsram1, (uint32_t *)FMC_DATA_ADDR, (uint8_t *)buffer, len);
ASSERT(res==HAL_OK);

[EPerr.1]

I missed the number max of block in DMA registers p689.

 

I can only send 64kB max.

Another mistakes was to not change the len in the API when i'm using words.

HAL_StatusTypeDef res = HAL_SRAM_Write_8b(&hsram1, (uint32_t *)FMC_DATA_ADDR, (uint8_t *)buffer, len);

uint32_t buffersize = len/4.

Buffersize is not the size in bytes but the size of the array...

Inside the API this code manage the number of bytes...

if (data_width == DMA_DEST_DATAWIDTH_WORD){
 size = (BufferSize * 4U);
}
else if (data_width == DMA_DEST_DATAWIDTH_HALFWORD){
 size = (BufferSize * 2U);
 }
else {
 size = (BufferSize);
 }
