elansc - AMD Elan SC520 System Controller driver

SYNOPSIS

elansc* at mainbus? bus ? gpio* at elansc? pci* at elansc? elanpar* at elansc? elanpex* at elansc?

DESCRIPTION

The elansc driver supports the system controller of the AMD Elan SC520 microcontroller. The SC520 consists of an AMD Am5x86 processor core, integrated PCI host controller, and several standard on-chip devices, such as NS16550-compatible UARTs, real-time clock, and timers.

The Elan SC520 also provides several special on-chip devices. The following are supported by the elansc driver:

HISTORY

The elansc device first appeared in NetBSD2.0. PIO function support was added in OpenBSD3.6, and subsequently ported to NetBSD4.0. Support for PCI exceptions reporting and for RAM write-protection first appeared in NetBSD5.0.

AUTHORS

The elansc driver was written by Jason R. Thorpe <thorpej@NetBSD.org>
. Jasper Wallace
provided the work-around for a hardware bug related to the watchdog timer in some steppings of the SC520 CPU. Support for the PIO function was added to OpenBSD3.6 by Alexander Yurchenko <grange@openbsd.org>
and was ported to NetBSD by Jeff Rizzo <riz@NetBSD.org>
. David Young <dyoung@NetBSD.org>
added support for PCI exceptions reporting and for RAM write-protection using the Programmable Address Regions.
