#5 serial driver programming

[Anonymous]

Hi,

I'm trying to write a driver to make an Ir transceiver
work that's integrated into an AMD ELAN 486 CPU. I
know that the ELAN SC400 UART is messed up, and I've
introduced delays into the interrupt routines that
should cope fine with this. The Ir transceiver is
half duplex, though, which is giving me some troubles.

What I would like is to do this more flexibly, and
implement the driver for this more like serial_cs is
done form PCMCIA serial devices. An outside modules
that can deal with the hardware. That way I wouldn't
have to mess around inside the generic serial support.

Can anyone give me some pointers on how to do that, or
where there might be a document on it? Also, any
ideas about a good way to make this driver do all it's
I/O in half duplex would be appreciated. Thanks!
