.SH INTERFACE LEVEL

This interface is obsolete. \fBddi_dma_free_handle\fR(9F) should be used instead.

.SH DESCRIPTION
.sp
.LP
The \fBddi_dma_free()\fR function releases system \fBDMA\fR resources set up by \fBddi_dma_setup\fR(9F). When a \fBDMA\fR transfer completes, the driver should free up system \fBDMA\fR resources established by a call to \fBddi_dma_setup\fR(9F). This is done by a call to \fBddi_dma_free()\fR. \fBddi_dma_free()\fR does an implicit \fBddi_dma_sync\fR(9F) for you so any further synchronization steps are not necessary.
.SH RETURN VALUES
