Well, not for some odd devices. See the next section for information
about that.
- DAC Addressing for Address Space Hungry Devices
-
-There exists a class of devices which do not mesh well with the PCI
-DMA mapping API. By definition these "mappings" are a finite
-resource. The number of total available mappings per bus is platform
-specific, but there will always be a reasonable amount.
-
-What is "reasonable"? Reasonable means that networking and block I/O
-devices need not worry about using too many mappings.
-
-As an example of a problematic device, consider compute cluster cards.
-They can potentially need to access gigabytes of memory at once via
-DMA. Dynamic mappings are unsuitable for this kind of access pattern.
-
-To this end we've provided a small API by which a device driver
-may use DAC cycles to directly address all of physical memory.
-Not all platforms support this, but most do. It is easy to determine
-whether the platform will work properly at probe time.
-
-First, understand that there may be a SEVERE performance penalty for
-using these interfaces on some platforms. Therefore, you MUST only
-use these interfaces if it is absolutely required. %99 of devices can
-use the normal APIs without any problems.
-
-Note that for streaming type mappings you must either use these
-interfaces, or the dynamic mapping interfaces above. You may not mix
-usage of both for the same device. Such an act is illegal and is
-guaranteed to put a banana in your tailpipe.
-
-However, consistent mappings may in fact be used in conjunction with
-these interfaces. Remember that, as defined, consistent mappings are
-always going to be SAC addressable.
-
-The first thing your driver needs to do is query the PCI platform
-layer if it is capable of handling your devices DAC addressing
-capabilities:
-
- int pci_dac_dma_supported(struct pci_dev *hwdev, u64 mask);
-
-You may not use the following interfaces if this routine fails.
-
-Next, DMA addresses using this API are kept track of using the
-dma64_addr_t type. It is guaranteed to be big enough to hold any
-DAC address the platform layer will give to you from the following
-routines. If you have consistent mappings as well, you still
-use plain dma_addr_t to keep track of those.
-
-All mappings obtained here will be direct. The mappings are not
-translated, and this is the purpose of this dialect of the DMA API.
-
-All routines work with page/offset pairs. This is the _ONLY_ way to
-portably refer to any piece of memory. If you have a cpu pointer
-(which may be validly DMA'd too) you may easily obtain the page
-and offset using something like this:
-
- struct page *page = virt_to_page(ptr);
- unsigned long offset = offset_in_page(ptr);
-
-Here are the interfaces:
-
- dma64_addr_t pci_dac_page_to_dma(struct pci_dev *pdev,
- struct page *page,
- unsigned long offset,
- int direction);
-
-The DAC address for the tuple PAGE/OFFSET are returned. The direction
-argument is the same as for pci_{map,unmap}_single(). The same rules
-for cpu/device access apply here as for the streaming mapping
-interfaces. To reiterate:
-
- The cpu may touch the buffer before pci_dac_page_to_dma.
- The device may touch the buffer after pci_dac_page_to_dma
- is made, but the cpu may NOT.
-
-When the DMA transfer is complete, invoke:
-
- void pci_dac_dma_sync_single_for_cpu(struct pci_dev *pdev,
- dma64_addr_t dma_addr,
- size_t len, int direction);
-
-This must be done before the CPU looks at the buffer again.
-This interface behaves identically to pci_dma_sync_{single,sg}_for_cpu().
-
-And likewise, if you wish to let the device get back at the buffer after
-the cpu has read/written it, invoke:
-
- void pci_dac_dma_sync_single_for_device(struct pci_dev *pdev,
- dma64_addr_t dma_addr,
- size_t len, int direction);
-
-before letting the device access the DMA area again.
-
-If you need to get back to the PAGE/OFFSET tuple from a dma64_addr_t
-the following interfaces are provided:
-
- struct page *pci_dac_dma_to_page(struct pci_dev *pdev,
- dma64_addr_t dma_addr);
- unsigned long pci_dac_dma_to_offset(struct pci_dev *pdev,
- dma64_addr_t dma_addr);
-
-This is possible with the DAC interfaces purely because they are
-not translated in any way.
-
Optimizing Unmap State Space Consumption
On many platforms, pci_unmap_{single,page}() is simply a nop.

+ I<superscript>2</superscript>C (or without fancy typography, "I2C")

+ Most I2C devices use seven bit addresses, and bus speeds of up
+ to 400 kHz; there's a high speed extension (3.4 MHz) that's not yet
+ found wide use.
+ I2C is a multi-master bus; open drain signaling is used to
+ arbitrate between masters, as well as to handshake and to
+ synchronize clocks from slower clients.
+ </para>
+
+ <para>
+ The Linux I2C programming interfaces support only the master
+ side of bus interactions, not the slave side.
+ The programming interface is structured around two kinds of driver,
+ and two kinds of device.
+ An I2C "Adapter Driver" abstracts the controller hardware; it binds
+ to a physical device (perhaps a PCI device or platform_device) and
+ exposes a <structname>struct i2c_adapter</structname> representing
+ each I2C bus segment it manages.
+ On each I2C bus segment will be I2C devices represented by a
+ <structname>struct i2c_client</structname>. Those devices will
+ be bound to a <structname>struct i2c_driver</structname>,
+ which should follow the standard Linux driver model.
+ (At this writing, a legacy model is more widely used.)
+ There are functions to perform various I2C protocol operations; at

+ The System Management Bus (SMBus) is a sibling protocol. Most SMBus

+ SMBus operations, but SMBus controllers don't support all the protocol
+ options that an I2C controller will.

+ A Simple Guide to Configure KGDB
+
+ Sonic Zhang <sonic.zhang@analog.com>
+ Aug. 24th 2006
+
+
+This KGDB patch enables the kernel developer to do source level debugging on
+the kernel for the Blackfin architecture. The debugging works over either the
+ethernet interface or one of the uarts. Both software breakpoints and
+hardware breakpoints are supported in this version.
+http://docs.blackfin.uclinux.org/doku.php?id=kgdb
+
+
+2 known issues:
+1. This bug:
+ http://blackfin.uclinux.org/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=544&group_id=18&atid=145
+ The GDB client for Blackfin uClinux causes incorrect values of local
+ variables to be displayed when the user breaks the running of kernel in GDB.
+2. Because of a hardware bug in Blackfin 533 v1.0.3:
+ 05000067 - Watchpoints (Hardware Breakpoints) are not supported
+ Hardware breakpoints cannot be set properly.
+
+
+Debug over Ethernet:
+
+1. Compile and install the cross platform version of gdb for blackfin, which
+ can be found at $(BINROOT)/bfin-elf-gdb.
+
+2. Apply this patch to the 2.6.x kernel. Select the menuconfig option under
+ "Kernel hacking" -> "Kernel debugging" -> "KGDB: kernel debug with remote gdb".
+ With this selected, option "Full Symbolic/Source Debugging support" and
+ "Compile the kernel with frame pointers" are also selected.
+
+3. Select option "KGDB: connect over (Ethernet)". Add "kgdboe=@target-IP/,@host-IP/" to
+ the option "Compiled-in Kernel Boot Parameter" under "Kernel hacking".
+
+4. Connect minicom to the serial port and boot the kernel image.
+
+5. Configure the IP "/> ifconfig eth0 target-IP"
+
+6. Start GDB client "bfin-elf-gdb vmlinux".
+
+7. Connect to the target "(gdb) target remote udp:target-IP:6443".
+
+8. Set software breakpoint "(gdb) break sys_open".
+
+9. Continue "(gdb) c".
+
+10. Run ls in the target console "/> ls".
+
+11. Breakpoint hits. "Breakpoint 1: sys_open(..."
+
+12. Display local variables and function paramters.
+ (*) This operation gives wrong results, see known issue 1.
+
+13. Single stepping "(gdb) si".
+
+14. Remove breakpoint 1. "(gdb) del 1"
+
+15. Set hardware breakpoint "(gdb) hbreak sys_open".
+
+16. Continue "(gdb) c".
+
+17. Run ls in the target console "/> ls".
+
+18. Hardware breakpoint hits. "Breakpoint 1: sys_open(...".
+ (*) This hardware breakpoint will not be hit, see known issue 2.
+
+19. Continue "(gdb) c".
+
+20. Interrupt the target in GDB "Ctrl+C".
+
+21. Detach from the target "(gdb) detach".
+
+22. Exit GDB "(gdb) quit".
+
+
+Debug over the UART:
+
+1. Compile and install the cross platform version of gdb for blackfin, which
+ can be found at $(BINROOT)/bfin-elf-gdb.
+
+2. Apply this patch to the 2.6.x kernel. Select the menuconfig option under
+ "Kernel hacking" -> "Kernel debugging" -> "KGDB: kernel debug with remote gdb".
+ With this selected, option "Full Symbolic/Source Debugging support" and
+ "Compile the kernel with frame pointers" are also selected.
+
+3. Select option "KGDB: connect over (UART)". Set "KGDB: UART port number" to be
+ a different one from the console. Don't forget to change the mode of
+ blackfin serial driver to PIO. Otherwise kgdb works incorrectly on UART.
+
+4. If you want connect to kgdb when the kernel boots, enable
+ "KGDB: Wait for gdb connection early"
+
+5. Compile kernel.
+
+6. Connect minicom to the serial port of the console and boot the kernel image.
+
+7. Start GDB client "bfin-elf-gdb vmlinux".
+
+8. Set the baud rate in GDB "(gdb) set remotebaud 57600".
+
+9. Connect to the target on the second serial port "(gdb) target remote /dev/ttyS1".
+
+10. Set software breakpoint "(gdb) break sys_open".
+
+11. Continue "(gdb) c".
+
+12. Run ls in the target console "/> ls".
+
+13. A breakpoint is hit. "Breakpoint 1: sys_open(..."
+
+14. All other operations are the same as that in KGDB over Ethernet.
+
+
+Debug over the same UART as console:
+
+1. Compile and install the cross platform version of gdb for blackfin, which
+ can be found at $(BINROOT)/bfin-elf-gdb.
+
+2. Apply this patch to the 2.6.x kernel. Select the menuconfig option under
+ "Kernel hacking" -> "Kernel debugging" -> "KGDB: kernel debug with remote gdb".
+ With this selected, option "Full Symbolic/Source Debugging support" and
+ "Compile the kernel with frame pointers" are also selected.
+
+3. Select option "KGDB: connect over UART". Set "KGDB: UART port number" to console.
+ Don't forget to change the mode of blackfin serial driver to PIO.
+ Otherwise kgdb works incorrectly on UART.
+
+4. If you want connect to kgdb when the kernel boots, enable
+ "KGDB: Wait for gdb connection early"
+
+5. Connect minicom to the serial port and boot the kernel image.
+
+6. (Optional) Ask target to wait for gdb connection by entering Ctrl+A. In minicom, you should enter Ctrl+A+A.
+
+7. Start GDB client "bfin-elf-gdb vmlinux".
+
+8. Set the baud rate in GDB "(gdb) set remotebaud 57600".
+
+9. Connect to the target "(gdb) target remote /dev/ttyS0".
+
+10. Set software breakpoint "(gdb) break sys_open".
+
+11. Continue "(gdb) c". Then enter Ctrl+C twice to stop GDB connection.
+
+12. Run ls in the target console "/> ls". Dummy string can be seen on the console.
+
+13. Then connect the gdb to target again. "(gdb) target remote /dev/ttyS0".
+ Now you will find a breakpoint is hit. "Breakpoint 1: sys_open(..."
+
+14. All other operations are the same as that in KGDB over Ethernet. The only
+ difference is that after continue command in GDB, please stop GDB
+ connection by 2 "Ctrl+C"s and connect again after breakpoints are hit or
+ Ctrl+A is entered.

+Kernel driver i2c-taos-evm
+
+Author: Jean Delvare <khali@linux-fr.org>
+
+This is a driver for the evaluation modules for TAOS I2C/SMBus chips.
+The modules include an SMBus master with limited capabilities, which can
+be controlled over the serial port. Virtually all evaluation modules
+are supported, but a few lines of code need to be added for each new
+module to instantiate the right I2C chip on the bus. Obviously, a driver
+for the chip in question is also needed.
+
+Currently supported devices are:
+
+* TAOS TSL2550 EVM
+
+For addtional information on TAOS products, please see
+ http://www.taosinc.com/
+
+
+Using this driver
+-----------------
+
+In order to use this driver, you'll need the serport driver, and the
+inputattach tool, which is part of the input-utils package. The following
+commands will tell the kernel that you have a TAOS EVM on the first
+serial port:
+
+# modprobe serport
+# inputattach --taos-evm /dev/ttyS0
+
+
+Technical details
+-----------------
+
+Only 4 SMBus transaction types are supported by the TAOS evaluation
+modules:
+* Receive Byte
+* Send Byte
+* Read Byte
+* Write Byte
+
+The communication protocol is text-based and pretty simple. It is
+described in a PDF document on the CD which comes with the evaluation
+module. The communication is rather slow, because the serial port has
+to operate at 1200 bps. However, I don't think this is a big concern in
+practice, as these modules are meant for evaluation and testing only.

-
-Description
------------
-
-This module aims to provide complete access to the Xicor X1205 RTC.
-Recently Xicor has merged with Intersil, but the chip is
-still sold under the Xicor brand.
-
-This chip is located at address 0x6f and uses a 2-byte register addressing.
-Two bytes need to be written to read a single register, while most
-other chips just require one and take the second one as the data
-to be written. To prevent corrupting unknown chips, the user must
-explicitely set the probe parameter.
-
-example:
-
-modprobe x1205 probe=0,0x6f
-
