VME driver (Universe II)

VME driver (Universe II)

[ghannon]

Greetings,

Has the universe II driver been updated against the 2_4_devel tree?

I have found the patches from Gabriel Paubert, against 2_2.
Should I attempt to merge that into the 2.4.11 area to get a
driver for VME?   It would be a learning experience for me, but
one that I'd rather avoid if possible.

The board is MVME-5100 using 2.4.11 from the devel tree.

Any pointers would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Gary

The vme driver I have is from the 5100 lsp MVista provided. It's running
under the 2.4.2 kernel and been exercised pretty extensively. I'm not doing
any DMA transfer though.

Did you have any special setup files (arch/ppc/kernel) for the 5100?

Did you try the driver on http://www.vmelinux.org/?
It works fine for System Controller boards.
You should make some change to support big-endian.
