Hi,
I'm trying to convert a FreeBSD PCI driver which is i386 only so far to
use bus_space. In its include file it defines register datatypes ...
typedef volatile u_int bregister_t;
#define BTBYTE(what) bregister_t what:8; int :24
#define BTWORD(what) bregister_t what:16; int: 16
#define BTLONG(what) bregister_t what:32
... and a structure with lots of registers using these types.
Later it does access like this:
bt848->dstatus = 0x00;
So how do I change this? Can I modify this structure, map it properly
and still peek into it? Or will I have to use bus_map_*_read() with
a base address and some kind of offset?
[Sorry, if these question are stupid but this is my first encounter
with kernel hardware handling.]
