KernelVersion: 2.6.26
Contact: Dan Williams <dan.j.williams@intel.com>
Description: The /sys/dev tree provides a method to look up the sysfs
path for a device using the information returned from
stat(2). There are two directories, 'block' and 'char',
beneath /sys/dev containing symbolic links with names of
the form "<major>:<minor>". These links point to the
corresponding sysfs path for the given device.
Example:
$ readlink /sys/dev/block/8:32
../../block/sdc
Entries in /sys/dev/char and /sys/dev/block will be
dynamically created and destroyed as devices enter and
leave the system.

So, you can either get rid of GNU emacs, or change it to use saner

(interactive)
(c-mode)
(c-set-style "K&R")

(offset (- (1+ column) anchor))
(steps (floor offset c-basic-offset)))
(* (max steps 1)

This will define the M-x linux-c-mode command. When hacking on a
module, if you put the string -*- linux-c -*- somewhere on the first
two lines, this mode will be automatically invoked. Also, you may want
to add
(add-hook 'c-mode-hook
(lambda ()
(let ((filename (buffer-file-name)))
;; Enable kernel mode for the appropriate files
(when (and filename

auto-mode-alist))
to your .emacs file if you want to have linux-c-mode switched on
automagically when you edit source files under /usr/src/linux.
This will make emacs go better with the kernel coding style for C
files below ~/src/linux-trees.
But even if you fail in getting emacs to do sane formatting, not
everything is lost: use "indent".

<para>
For some hardware that has more than one interrupt source internally,
but not separate IRQ mask and status registers, there might be
situations where userspace cannot determine what the interrupt source
was if the kernel handler disables them by writing to the chip's IRQ
register. In such a case, the kernel has to disable the IRQ completely
to leave the chip's register untouched. Now the userspace part can
determine the cause of the interrupt, but it cannot re-enable
interrupts. Another cornercase is chips where re-enabling interrupts
is a read-modify-write operation to a combined IRQ status/acknowledge
register. This would be racy if a new interrupt occurred
simultaneously.
</para>

To address these problems, UIO also implements a write() function. It
is normally not used and can be ignored for hardware that has only a
single interrupt source or has separate IRQ mask and status registers.
If you need it, however, a write to <filename>/dev/uioX</filename>
will call the <function>irqcontrol()</function> function implemented
by the driver. You have to write a 32-bit value that is usually either
0 or 1 to disable or enable interrupts. If a driver does not implement

A generic digital 24-port PCI GPIO card can be built out of an ordinary
Brooktree bt848, bt849, bt878 or bt879 based analog TV tuner card. The
Brooktree chip is used in old analog Hauppauge WinTV PCI cards. You can easily
find them used for low prices on the net.
The bt8xx chip does have 24 digital GPIO ports.
These ports are accessible via 24 pins on the SMD chip package.
==============================================
== How to physically access the GPIO pins ==
==============================================
The are several ways to access these pins. One might unsolder the whole chip
and put it on a custom PCI board, or one might only unsolder each individual
GPIO pin and solder that to some tiny wire. As the chip package really is tiny
there are some advanced soldering skills needed in any case.
The physical pinouts are drawn in the following ASCII art.
The GPIO pins are marked with G00-G23

Panic on UE control file:
'edac_mc_panic_on_ue'
An uncorrectable error will cause a machine panic. This is usually
desirable. It is a bad idea to continue when an uncorrectable error
occurs - it is indeterminate what was uncorrected and the operating
system context might be so mangled that continuing will lead to further
corruption. If the kernel has MCE configured, then EDAC will never
notice the UE.

SH7760/SH7763 integrated LCDC Framebuffer driver
================================================
0. Overwiew
-----------
The SH7760/SH7763 have an integrated LCD Display controller (LCDC) which
supports (in theory) resolutions ranging from 1x1 to 1024x1024,
with color depths ranging from 1 to 16 bits, on STN, DSTN and TFT Panels.
Caveats:
* Framebuffer memory must be a large chunk allocated at the top
of Area3 (HW requirement). Because of this requirement you should NOT
make the driver a module since at runtime it may become impossible to
get a large enough contiguous chunk of memory.
* The driver does not support changing resolution while loaded
(displays aren't hotpluggable anyway)
* Heavy flickering may be observed
a) if you're using 15/16bit color modes at >= 640x480 px resolutions,
b) during PCMCIA (or any other slow bus) activity.
* Rotation works only 90degress clockwise, and only if horizontal
resolution is <= 320 pixels.

1. Platform setup
-----------------
SH7760:
Video data is fetched via the DMABRG DMA engine, so you have to
configure the SH DMAC for DMABRG mode (write 0x94808080 to the
DMARSRA register somewhere at boot).
PFC registers PCCR and PCDR must be set to peripheral mode.
(write zeros to both).
The driver does NOT do the above for you since board setup is, well, job
of the board setup code.
2. Panel definitions
--------------------
The LCDC must explicitly be told about the type of LCD panel
attached. Data must be wrapped in a "struct sh7760fb_platdata" and
passed to the driver as platform_data.
Suggest you take a closer look at the SH7760 Manual, Section 30.

@@ -3,11 +3,25 @@ Tridentfb is a framebuffer driver for some Trident chip based cards.
The following list of chips is thought to be supported although not all are
tested:
those from the Image series with Cyber in their names - accelerated
those with Blade in their names (Blade3D,CyberBlade...) - accelerated
the newer CyberBladeXP family - nonaccelerated
those from the TGUI series 9440/96XX and with Cyber in their names

the newer CyberBladeXP family
Only PCI/AGP based cards are supported, none of the older Tridents.
All families are accelerated. Only PCI/AGP based cards are supported,
none of the older Tridents.
The driver supports 8, 16 and 32 bits per pixel depths.
The TGUI family requires a line length to be power of 2 if acceleration
is enabled. This means that range of possible resolutions and bpp is
limited comparing to the range if acceleration is disabled (see list
of parameters below).
Known bugs:
1. The driver randomly locks up on 3DImage975 chip with acceleration
enabled. The same happens in X11 (Xorg).
2. The ramdac speeds require some more fine tuning. It is possible to
switch resolution which the chip does not support at some depths for
older chips.
How to use it?
