This is not quite finished yet, and therefore I have not added it to the usr.sbin/Makefile yet. I collected a bunch of Andrews small programs into one: pccardc /phk Reviewed by: phk Submitted by: Andrew McRae <andrew@mega.com.au> |

PCMCIA Support for FreeBSD 2.0 ------------------------------ This package contains the following: - Driver for Intel 83265 PCIC PCMCIA controller - A PCMCIA daemon for managing card insertions/removals - Diffs to various source files for adding PCMCIA support - A sample config file - Some utility programs for reading card data tuples - Some documentation. What it doesn't include is: - Configuration for brand XYZ PCMCIA cards - Drivers for brand XYZ PCMCIA cards - Diffs to modify standard drivers to handle card events Essentially, this package contains everything required to add PCMCIA support to FreeBSD 2.0. It does this via a daemon that manages the PCMCIA slots via a PCIC driver. A configuration file provides the daemon with the information required to setup the specific cards, and to manage card insertion and removal. This package has been tested on a NEC Versa Laptop. The first version was developed on FreeBSD 1.1.5.1. The main idea behind the package is for pcmciad to detect inserted cards and match to a card ID in the config file, then set up the I/O ports and memory window to the card according to the data for the driver associated with the card, then attach the kernel driver to the device. Shell commands can be executed for both insertion and removal of cards, and different commands can be executed for different cards, drivers and devices. Different kernel drivers may have to have some mods done to recognise the card once installed; I have included some diffs to `ed' that allows recognition of a `generic' NS8390 card. Some minor changes were made to ifconfig(8) to allow a different ethernet address to be assigned to a network interface, since each card may have different locations the ethernet address is stored in. This is a snapshot of a release for FreeBSD 2.0. It is basically the 1.1.5.1 release ported for 2.0. I have only just received a developer's guide for PCMCIA, so I should have some more stable support soon. For instructions on installation, see INSTALL. There is a man entry on the daemon (pcmciad.8), and the config file (pcmcia.conf.5). Please send mail with any bugs or new card descriptions. Enjoy!
