TIP815 device driver C source
/d0/tip815/t815adriv.a
TIP815 device driver assembler to C interface
/d0/tip815/t815cif.a
TIP815 device driver application call interface
/d0/tip815/t815stat.a
TIP815 device static storage allocation
/d0/tip815/t815A.a
TIP815 device descriptor IP- -slot A (MVME162)
/d0/tip815/t815B.a
TIP815 device descriptor IP- -slot B (MVME162)
/d0/tip815/t815C.a
TIP815 device descriptor IP- -slot C (MVME162)
/d0/tip815/t815D.a
TIP815 device descriptor IP- -slot D (MVME162)
/d0/tip815/tip815.h
TIP815 application program include
/d0/tip815/local.h
TIP815 device driver include
/d0/tip815/ipchip.h
MVME162 IP chip definitions
/d0/tip815/arcnet.h
ARCNET controller programming model
/d0/tip815/makefile
Makefile to build the driver
The distribution contains predefined device descriptors for the four IP slots of the MVME162.

After you’ve copied all files from the disk, you have to choose the version of your OS
--
9. Edit the
Makefile and enable the line setting the flags for your OS
--
9 version:
$ e Makefile
After you choose the used OS
--
9 version, the driver can be build with the following command:
$ make
The driver and its corresponding device descriptors can be loaded into the running system with the
command:
$ load - -d t815drv t815A t815B t815C t815D
The device driver must be initialized for each device descriptor with a command like:
$ iniz t815A ...
All TIP815 I/O system calls ( t815_open(), t815_close() and t815_cntrl() ) can be called directly out of
the C
--
code application program by using the C call interface.
To do this it is necessary to link the relocatable object
t815cif.r
with the application program.
For example:
$ cc ... program.c t815cif.r ...
