15.5.1.6. Interrupt and DMA Enabling

Prior to initiating any data operation on the NAND flash controller, the software must set appropriate interrupt status register bits. If the software uses the DMA logic in the flash controller, then the appropriate DMA enable and interrupts bits in the register space must be set.
  1. Set the flag bit in the global_int_enable register in the config group to 1, to enable global interrupt.
  2. Set the relevant bits of the intr_en0 register in the status group to 1 before initiating any operations if the flash controller is in interrupt mode. Intel recommends that the software reads back this register to ensure clearing an interrupt status. This recommendation applies also to an interrupt service routine.
  3. Enable DMA if your application needs DMA mode. Enable DMA by setting the flag bit of the dma_enable register in the dma group. Intel recommends that the software reads back this register to ensure that the mode change is accepted before sending a DMA command to the flash controller.
  4. If the DMA is enabled, then set up the appropriate bits of the dma_intr_en register in the dma group.
