may be you're looking for something like this:

well it's quite simplified, but i just found that on the wiki..

 We would rightly deserve to get our asses laughed at if we did that.
 You're likely thinking about the actual SD Card interface is now via the
 Glamo, which has an SD interface poking out of it.  WIFI is hooked to
 the CPU SDIO bus and we don't otherwise use these buses.

 DMA can be used, I seem to recall someone saying they did something with
 it in Xglamo, but PIO isn't where the problems are coming from.

 The Glamo offers normal async memory bus interface which we use, but it
 has a bunch of timing constraints.  (There is a synchronous burst bus
 mode that we don't use because the CPU doesn't support it and adding a
 CPLD in there to translate will eat power and doesn't make sense.)
