NAME

sysbus, isa - device tree properties for ISA bus device

drivers

DESCRIPTION

Solaris for x86 supports the ISA bus as the system bus. Drivers for devices on this buse use the device tree built by the booting system to retrieve the necessary system resources used by the driver. These resources include device

I/O port addresses, any interrupt capabilities that the device can have, any DMA channels it can require, and any

memory-mapped addresses it can occupy.

Configuration files for ISA device drivers are only neces-

sary to describe properties used by a particular driver that are not part of the standard properties found in the device

tree. See driver.conf(4) for further details of configura-

tion file syntax.

The ISA nexus drivers all belong to class sysbus. All bus

drivers of class sysbus recognize the following properties:

interrupts An arbitrary-length array where each element

of the array represents a hardware interrupt

(IRQ) that is used by the device. In gen-

eral, this array only has one entry unless a particular device uses more than one IRQ. Solaris defaults all ISA interrupts to IPL

5. This interrupt priority can be overrid-

den by placing an interrupt-priorities pro-

perty in a .conf file for the driver. Each entry in the array of integers for the

interrupt-priorities property is matched

one-to-one with the elements in the inter-

rupts property to specify the IPL value that is used by the system for this interrupt in this driver. This is the priority that this device's interrupt handler receives relative to the interrupt handlers of other drivers. The priority is an integer from 1 to 16. Generally, disks are assigned a priority of 5, while mice and printers are lower, and serial communication devices are higher, typically 7. 10 is reserved by the system and must not be used. Priorities 11 and greater are high level priorities and are generally not recommended (see

ddi_intr_hilevel(9F)).

The driver can refer to the elements of this

array by index using ddi_add_intr(9F). The

index into the array is passed as the

inumber argument of ddi_add_intr().

Only devices that generate interrupts have an interrupts property.

reg An arbitrary-length array where each element

of the array consists of a 3-tuple of

integers. Each array element describes a contiguous memory address range associated with the device on the bus. The first integer of the tuple specifies the memory type, 0 specifies a memory range and

1 specifies an I/O range. The second integer specifies the base address of the memory

range. The third integer of each 3-tuple

specifies the size, in bytes, of the mappa-

ble region. The driver can refer to the elements of this

array by index, and construct kernel map-

pings to these addresses using

ddi_map_regs(9F). The index into the array

is passed as the rnumber argument of

ddi_map_regs().

All sysbus devices have reg properties.

The first tuple of this property is used to construct the address part of the device name under /devices. In the case of Plug and Play ISA devices, the first tuple is a special tuple that does not denote a memory range, but is used by the system only to create the address part of the device name. This special tuple can be recognized by determining if the top bit of the first integer is set to a one. The order of the tuples in the reg property is determined by the boot system probe code and depends on the characteristics of each

particular device. However, the reg pro-

perty maintains the same order of entries

from system boot to system boot. The recom-

mended way to determine the reg property for a particular device is to use the prtconf(1M) command after installing the particular device. The output of the

prtconf command can be examined to determine the reg property for any installed device.

You can use the ddi_get* and ddi_put* family

of functions to access register space from a

high-level interrupt context.

dma-channels A list of integers that specifies the DMA

channels used by this device. Only devices

that use DMA channels have a dma-channels

property.
