Memory Scatter-Gather
Memory Scatter-Gather mode is a complex mode used when data must be transferred to or from
varied locations in memory instead of a set of contiguous locations in a memory buffer. For example,
a gather μDMA operation could be used to selectively read the payload of several stored packets
of a communication protocol and store them together in sequence in a memory buffer.
