Sometimes DMA mode crashes the PI. I have some theories on what is happening:

  • Out of bounds write: The DMA controller writes outside the GPIO memory area
  • Out of bounds read: The DMA controller reading from an invalid address might potentially crash the CPU
  • Bad setup of cyclic DMA chain: There might be something wrong with the DMA controller control blocks
