DMA Failure

Problem description: DMA mode failed to load logs from the kernel.

The following image displays an example failure screen.
Figure 1. DMA Failure

Analysis: This is a normal case, since DMA is not configured in device tree. There are fewer DMA channels and cannot fully meet the demand, and SPI does not use the DMA channel to transfer.

Solution: If you want to use DMA channel to transfer, you should change the device tree and add DMA configuration.

The highlighted section in the following image provides an example solution.
