异步内存复制

[English]

概述

ESP32-S2 有一个 DMA 引擎,能够以异步方式帮助 CPU 完成内部内存复制操作。

异步 memcpy API 中封装了所有 DMA 配置和操作,esp_async_memcpy() 的签名与标准 C 库的 memcpy 函数基本相同。

DMA 允许多个内存复制请求在首个请求完成之前排队,即允许计算和内存复制的重叠。此外,通过注册事件回调函数,还可以知道内存复制请求完成的准确时间。

配置并安装驱动

安装异步 memcpy 驱动的方法取决于底层 DMA 引擎:

  • esp_async_memcpy_install_cpdma() 用于安装基于 CP DMA 引擎的异步 memcpy 驱动。

  • esp_async_memcpy_install() 是一个通用 API,用于安装带有默认 DMA 引擎的异步 memcpy 驱动。如果 SoC 具有 CP DMA 引擎,则默认 DMA 引擎为 CP DMA,否则,默认 DMA 引擎为 AHB GDMA。

async_memcpy_config_t 中设置驱动配置:

  • backlog:此项用于配置首个请求完成前可以排队的最大内存复制事务数量。如果将此字段设置为零,会应用默认值 4。

  • dma_burst_size:设置单次 DMA 传输中突发数据量的大小。

  • flags:此项可以启用一些特殊的驱动功能。

async_memcpy_config_t config = ASYNC_MEMCPY_DEFAULT_CONFIG();
// 更新底层 DMA 引擎支持的最大数据流
config.backlog = 8;
async_memcpy_handle_t driver = NULL;
ESP_ERROR_CHECK(esp_async_memcpy_install(&config, &driver)); // 使用默认 DMA 引擎安装驱动

发送内存复制请求

使用 esp_async_memcpy() API 将内存复制请求发送到 DMA 引擎。在驱动程序成功安装后才能调用该 API。此 API 是线程安全的,因此可以从不同的任务中调用。

与 libc 版本的 memcpy 不同,你可以选择给 esp_async_memcpy() 设置一个回调函数,以便在内存复制完成时收到通知。注意,回调是在 ISR 上下文中执行的,请不要在回调中调用任何阻塞函数。

回调函数的原型是 async_memcpy_isr_cb_t。回调函数只有在借助 RTOS API(如 xSemaphoreGiveFromISR())唤醒了高优先级任务后才能返回 true。

// 回调实现,在 ISR 上下文中运行
static bool my_async_memcpy_cb(async_memcpy_handle_t mcp_hdl, async_memcpy_event_t *event, void *cb_args)
{
    SemaphoreHandle_t sem = (SemaphoreHandle_t)cb_args;
    BaseType_t high_task_wakeup = pdFALSE;
    xSemaphoreGiveFromISR(semphr, &high_task_wakeup); // 如果解锁了一些高优先级任务,则将 high_task_wakeup 设置为 pdTRUE
    return high_task_wakeup == pdTRUE;
}

// 创建一个信号量,在异步 memcpy 完成时进行报告
SemaphoreHandle_t semphr = xSemaphoreCreateBinary();

// 从用户的上下文中调用
ESP_ERROR_CHECK(esp_async_memcpy(driver_handle, to, from, copy_len, my_async_memcpy_cb, my_semaphore));
// 其他事项
xSemaphoreTake(my_semaphore, portMAX_DELAY); // 等待 buffer 复制完成

卸载驱动

使用 esp_async_memcpy_uninstall() 卸载异步 memcpy 驱动。无需在每次 memcpy 操作后手动卸载。如果你的应用程序不再需要此驱动,此 API 可以帮助回收内存和其他硬件资源。

Functions

esp_err_t esp_async_memcpy_install_cpdma(const async_memcpy_config_t *config, async_memcpy_handle_t *mcp)

Install async memcpy driver, with CPDMA as the backend.

备注

CPDMA is a CPU peripheral, aiming for memory copy.

参数
  • config -- [in] Configuration of async memcpy

  • mcp -- [out] Returned driver handle

返回

  • ESP_OK: Install async memcpy driver successfully

  • ESP_ERR_INVALID_ARG: Install async memcpy driver failed because of invalid argument

  • ESP_ERR_NO_MEM: Install async memcpy driver failed because out of memory

  • ESP_FAIL: Install async memcpy driver failed because of other error

esp_err_t esp_async_memcpy_install(const async_memcpy_config_t *config, async_memcpy_handle_t *mcp)

Install async memcpy driver with the default DMA backend.

备注

On chip with CPDMA support, CPDMA is the default choice. On chip with AHB-GDMA support, AHB-GDMA is the default choice.

参数
  • config -- [in] Configuration of async memcpy

  • mcp -- [out] Returned driver handle

返回

  • ESP_OK: Install async memcpy driver successfully

  • ESP_ERR_INVALID_ARG: Install async memcpy driver failed because of invalid argument

  • ESP_ERR_NO_MEM: Install async memcpy driver failed because out of memory

  • ESP_FAIL: Install async memcpy driver failed because of other error

esp_err_t esp_async_memcpy_uninstall(async_memcpy_handle_t mcp)

Uninstall async memcpy driver.

参数

mcp -- [in] Handle of async memcpy driver that returned from esp_async_memcpy_install

返回

  • ESP_OK: Uninstall async memcpy driver successfully

  • ESP_ERR_INVALID_ARG: Uninstall async memcpy driver failed because of invalid argument

  • ESP_FAIL: Uninstall async memcpy driver failed because of other error

esp_err_t esp_async_memcpy(async_memcpy_handle_t mcp, void *dst, void *src, size_t n, async_memcpy_isr_cb_t cb_isr, void *cb_args)

Send an asynchronous memory copy request.

备注

The callback function is invoked in interrupt context, never do blocking jobs in the callback.

参数
  • mcp -- [in] Handle of async memcpy driver that returned from esp_async_memcpy_install

  • dst -- [in] Destination address (copy to)

  • src -- [in] Source address (copy from)

  • n -- [in] Number of bytes to copy

  • cb_isr -- [in] Callback function, which got invoked in interrupt context. Set to NULL can bypass the callback.

  • cb_args -- [in] User defined argument to be passed to the callback function

返回

  • ESP_OK: Send memory copy request successfully

  • ESP_ERR_INVALID_ARG: Send memory copy request failed because of invalid argument

  • ESP_FAIL: Send memory copy request failed because of other error
