All the DMA transfers are mostly in-order; however, sf-pdma IP has programable configuration:
we can select the transfer type either in-order or out-of-order.

Sf-pdam IP will only support mem-to-mem transfers.

We got better throughput in the PolarFire SoC platform if we use out-of-order DMA transfers type, instead of in-order configuration in the sf-pdma IP.

test results for in-order:
- moved 16 MB from 0x89000000 using pdmacpy to 0x88000000 (chan: 0) in 0.068962 secs (232.012 MB per sec)

test results for out-of-order:
- moved 16 MB from 0x89000000 using pdmacpy to 0x88000000 (chan: 0) in 0.037020 secs (432.199 MB per sec)

Thanks,
Shravan
