OpenPIC specification

OpenPIC specification

[James Molloy]

Hi,

I'm a hobbyist OS developer (on my own project, not on linux) and
would like to support interrupt controllers conforming to the OpenPIC
specification. However I can't find the document online - the amd.com
link is dead and a URL mentioned in the LKML archives (on printk.net)
is also 404'd.

I noticed in the LKML archives that the document seems to get passed
around via private emails - would it be at all possible for someone to
kindly email me the spec?

Thank you very much in advance,

James Molloy.


(I'm not subscribed to LKML by the way - I read the archives online
but don't particularly need 300+ messages a day in my inbox so if any
replies/comments could be CC'd to the sending address I'd much
appreciate it.)

I don't have specs that I can send you, but I can suggest that you
take a look at the arch/powerpc/sysdev/mpic.[ch] code, which implements
it for powerpc. mpic is the most common (only?) implementation of openpic.

FWIW, the Apply `Hydra' Mac I/O chip also contained an OpenPIC.
