Hdlc driver for SCC port

Hdlc driver for SCC port

[Gérard Guével]

Hi,

Now I have a linux2.2.14 kernel which runs on my MPC860P board.
I would want to customize an hdlc driver on scc.

I saw, few days ago, Julia Elbert discusses about same subject.

Some help about what exists (structure, driver, howto, ...) would be
welcome.

Thanks

Gérard

I need to handle HDLC for my ISDN project on an MBX board. Progress is
slowly, because I am no expert. At the moment I can give away this
addition to commproc.h:

/*********   SCC parameter RAM for HDLC mode   *********/
typedef struct scc_hdlc {

} scc_hdlc_t;

Gerard,

The QSLinux kernel contains a complete SCC based HDLC/PPP driver.
Download the kernel from ftp://qslinux.org/pub/qslinux, decompress, and
then look in the directory snmc/qslinux/drivers/net.

Regards,
Daris Nevil
