James,

DMA stuff can be found in drivers/dma folder. You can look in DMAEngine
files for further information.

This feature is not DMA Engine specific, rather driver specific.
It is totally dependent on DMA driver, if it has implemented such feature.
For transferring data to/from peripherals device_prep_slave_sg routine is used.
