I want to use system DMA controller on the motherboard.
I know that I have to turn to WDM, but I havn't found any useful information.
Can you guys give me some examples or articles about that?
Thanks!!!

ps:
I want to use system DMA to transfer data from a device attatched on PCIe
bus to system Memory.
or Can I write a system DMA example for transfering data from one place to
another in the DDR memory?

This works for ISA devices only. Since ISA is dead, this works only for a) floppy b) LPT port c) some ancient Sound Blaster cards.

Impossible, system DMA does not work for PCI.

For PCI, the device must be a DMA busmaster.
