Systems and methods for performing direct memory access data transfers

A system, comprising:

• at least one direct memory access (DMA) system configured to perform one or more operations involved in one or more DMA transfers;
• and
• at least one accelerator configured to process data associated with one or more frames, the at least one accelerator comprising one or more circuits to:
• determine a first DMA transfer associated with a first DMA transfer type based at least on generation of frame data associated with a frame as obtained using at least one sensor;
• determine at least one second DMA transfer associated with a second DMA transfer type based at least on the frame to be linked to the first DMA transfer;
• responsive to determining the at least one second DMA transfer, generate data associated with a descriptor based at least on linking the first DMA transfer and the at least one second DMA transfer for the frame;
• and
• provide the data associated with the descriptor to the DMA system, the data associated with the descriptor configured to cause the DMA system to obtain the frame data associated with the frame from source memory based at least on the descriptor and store the frame data in destination memory.

A method comprising:

• determining a first direct memory access (DMA) transfer associated with a first DMA transfer type based at least on generation of frame data associated with a frame obtained using at least one sensor;
• determining at least one second DMA transfer associated with a second DMA transfer type based at least on the frame;
• responsive to determining the at least one second DMA transfer, generating data associated with a descriptor based at least on linking the first DMA transfer and the at least one second DMA transfer for the frame;
• and
• providing the data associated with the descriptor to device, the data associated with the descriptor configured to cause the device to obtain the frame data associated with the frame from source memory based at least on the descriptor and store the frame data in destination memory.
