DESCRIPTION
The Intel i82365SL PC Card interface controller provides one or more
PCMCIA PC card sockets. The pcic driver implements a PCMCIA bus nexus
driver.
The driver provides basic support for the Intel 82365SL and compatible
chips. Tested chips are:
o Intel — 82365SL.
o Cirrus Logic — PD6710/PD6720/PD6722.
o Vadem — VG365/VG465/VG468/VG469.
o Toshiba — PCIC and ToPIC
o Ricoh — RF5C366/RL5C466/RL5C475/RL5C476/RL5C477/RL5C478.
o 02Micro — OZ6912/6972.
o Texas Instruments —
PCI1130/PCI1131/PCI1031/PCI1221/PCI1225/PCI1520/PCI
1410/PCI1420/PCI4520/PCI7510/PCI7621.
While most systems using one of the above chips will work, some systems
are not supported due to hardware designs options that may not be soft‐
ware detectable.
Direct access to the PCMCIA hardware is not supported. All device
access must be through the DDI.
CONFIGURATION
Configuration of PC Card interface controllers are automatically done
in the system by leveraging ACPI on x86 (or OBP on SPARC). Configura‐
tion includes allocation of device memory, I/O ports, CardBus subordi‐
nary bus number and interrupts. There is no user-interference
required. Note that the controller may not work when ACPI is disabled.
There is one driver configuration property defined in the pcic.conf
file:
interrupt-priorities=6; This property must be defined and must
be below 10.
