Does P5020 DMA support transfer from PCIe to FMAN?

[brentmorin]

Looking to have Ethernet traffic from a PCIe attached NIC steered to FMAN to support parse/classify/distribute functions.  The P5020RM transfer interfaces does not explicitly list FMAN and wonder if "Local address space" includes the FMAN PAMU.

Have a great day,

The P5020 DMA does not support transfer from PCIe to FMAN. The P5020 manual says:

Datapath processing begins when Ethernet frames arrive at a network interface, assumed to be one of the Ethernet MACs within a frame manager... Alternatively, packets can arrive across a peripheral bus from an external network interface, in which case, the same packet walk-through stages can be applied with the help of a CPU acting as an I/O processor.
