[linuxsh-dev] Patchs for CallistoPro Platform

[Peter H. <pe...@xl...>]

Hello folks,

I had uploaded some patches for one platform named CallistoPro. It was designed
by Hitach Taiwan with CPU SuperH-4 and intelligent peripheral controller 
HD64463. The basic input (PS/2 keyboard) and output (VGA framebuffer) is 
working now. Please try these patches if you have the same platform.

I am working on PCMCIA and other drivers now. Please inform me if you
find the bugs or do the same thing, thanks. :-)

  I've just uploaded to the Sourceforge patch manager a patch (101674)
which contains my PCMCIA support code for the HD64465.  I've even added
an example machine vector entry for a HD64465-based `FOOBAR' machine,
which you can use to add '65 support to your machine.

  A few minutes ago I was reading card CIS structures using this code;
but be warned  it's still a work in progress (e.g. IO port remapping is
not tested).

  Please note, you will probably need David McKay's modutils patch.
I've only run these as modules.

  BTW, I have more 64465 support code which I can't release yet.  Sorry.

Enjoy,

I looked through the patches by Peter.  I've tried to look yours, but
it seems that it's gzipped(?), I can't look that.

How things are different between HD64463 and HD64465?

If there's no objection, I'd like to incorportate Peter's patch one by
one.  I see the include files (the definition of HD6446x) and frame
buffer driver are sane to be included.

How do you think?

Yes it is a gzip file. (Greg Bank tell me)

The different between them is HD64465 has pci controller but HD64463 does't.
HD64463 has something (framebuffer?)  but HD64465 does't.

Thanks.

Do you need new patch for linux-2.4.0-test6? (I had merge to test6 recently)
The frame of PCMCIA driver for CallistoPro is finish yet and need some test. 
If it is Ok, i will upload to sourceforge.

  Well it was.  I thought I'd better gzip it because it was so large. 
But
it seems to be causing confusion, so the new version I just uploaded is
not
gzip'ed anymore.

  I've attached a list of differences (thanks to Mitch for
working this out).

  I think you should read my patch.  I've attached a summary of what it
does.  I've also attached a boot log showing what the code does, which
is really cool.  Mitch and I are having lots of fun on this current
project,
and seeing a PCMCIA Ethernet interface appear for the first time was a
real buzz ;-)

  BTW, congratulations on the doner kebab ;-)

  The latest verion of my patch, now available on sourceforge, is
capable
of mounting a file system on a PCMCIA-ATA flash card, and reading &
writing
files.  Some parts of the code need cleaning up, e.g. the hack which
gets
around the problem of autoprobing twice-virtual interrupts from the PC
card.

  Niibe-san, have you been able to take a look at it?

Greg.
