Perle octal serial boards

Perle octal serial boards

[Philip Prindeville]

I've got a Perle Systems "Speed8 LE" board, which seems to have the Oxford Semi 954 (16PCI954 + 16PCI954N) chips on it:

$ sudo lspci -n -v -s 04:07
04:07.0 0700: 155f:b008 (prog-if 06 [16950])
	Subsystem: 1415:9501
	Flags: medium devsel, IRQ 21
	I/O ports at ec00 [size=32]
	Memory at fbfff000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=4K]
	I/O ports at e880 [size=32]
	Memory at fbffe000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=4K]
	Capabilities: [40] Power Management version 1

04:07.1 0680: 155f:b008
	Subsystem: 1415:9511
	Flags: medium devsel, IRQ 10
	I/O ports at e800 [size=32]
	Memory at fbffd000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=4K]
	I/O ports at e480 [size=32]
	Memory at fbffc000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=4K]
	Capabilities: [40] Power Management version 1

I was wondering if the 8250_pci.c driver can be made to work with it.

And if not, what's an 8-port serial PCI card that gives good performance for not a lot of money?
