Subject: Question regarding CONFIG_DMA_ENGINE

Hello

Is setting this option and CONFIG_NET_DMA usefull even when you do not have
the hardware?

And what hardware is required for this? Is this DMA engine located on
the network or raid card, or is this something in the chipset? Which
chipset or cards do have such an engine?

Thanks,
Holger
