49<h2>Description</h2>
50    <div class="section">
51<p>Issues a DMA transfer command request to the current command list.</p><P>
52DMA transfer command requests accumulate in the current command list. They are used when transferring data from main memory to VRAM without using the GL functions. This operation transfers <SPAN class="argument">size</SPAN> bytes of data from the address specified in <SPAN class="argument">srcaddr</SPAN> to the address specified in <SPAN class="argument">dstaddr</SPAN>.
53            </P><P>
54When using this function to perform a DMA transfer, cache coherecy is handled internally prior to the transfer and does not require support from the calling side. When a cache flush is unnecessary, it can be omitted by using the <CODE>nngxAddVramDmaCommandNoCacheFlush</CODE> function.
55            </P><P>
56The following errors occur with this function.
