   - slave_sg: DMA a list of scatter gather buffers from/to a peripheral
 
+  - peripheral_dma_vec: DMA an array of scatter gather buffers from/to a
+    peripheral. Similar to slave_sg, but uses an array of dma_vec
+    structures instead of a scatterlist.
+
   - dma_cyclic: Perform a cyclic DMA operation from/to a peripheral till the
     operation is explicitly stopped.

     - residue: Provides the residue bytes of the transfer for those that
       support residue.
 
+- ``device_prep_peripheral_dma_vec``
+
+  - Similar to ``device_prep_slave_sg``, but it takes a pointer to a
+    array of ``dma_vec`` structures, which (in the long run) will replace
+    scatterlists.
+
 - ``device_issue_pending``
 
   - Takes the first transaction descriptor in the pending queue,
···
 
 - Not really relevant any more since the introduction of ``virt-dma``
   that abstracts it away.
+
+dma_vec
+
+- A small structure that contains a DMA address and length.
