Overview + +This driver implements all currently defined RapidIO mport callback functions. +It supports maintenance read and write operations, inbound and outbound RapidIO +doorbells, inbound maintenance port-writes and RapidIO messaging. + +To generate SRIO maintenance transactions this driver uses one of Tsi721 DMA +channels. This mechanism provides access to larger range of hop counts and +destination IDs without need for changes in outbound window translation. + +RapidIO messaging support uses dedicated messaging channels for each mailbox. +For inbound messages this driver uses destination ID matching to forward messages +into the corresponding message queue. Messaging callbacks are implemented to be +fully compatible with RIONET driver (Ethernet over RapidIO messaging services). + +II. Known problems + + None. + +III. To do + + Add DMA data transfers (non-messaging). + Add inbound region (SRIO-to-PCIe) mapping. + +IV. Version History + + 1.0.0 - Initial driver release. + +V.
