Figure 5.7 DMA Setup - Device to Host or Host to Device FIS layout
The DMA Setup - Device to Host or Host to Device FIS communicates the start of
a first-party DMA access to the host system. This FIS is used to request the host
system or device to set up the DMA controller before the start of a DMA data
transfer.
A - Auto Active bit. If this bit is cleared ("0" is set for the bit), it indicates that a
DMA Active FIS transfer is required before a Data FIS transfer.
D - Direction bit. If this bit is set ("1" is set for the bit), it indicates that the data
transfer direction is from the device to the host system.
