Hi Greg, please check the below files for userspace code that interact with this kernel driver.
driver/roc_dpi.c provides the mailbox interface to communicate with this kernel driver.
application/main.c is the DPI DMA application which uses this misc driver to configure
the device with required mps, mrrs, fifo_mask parameters.
