11.2.4 Configuration File
Before the TMB14’s device driver software can be used, a
configuration file needs to be edited to reflect the hardware
parameters of the TMB14 motherboard or motherboards used. This
configuration file is described in this section.
The file
/kernel/drv/tmb.conf
is a configuration file which is
used to specify the hardware parameters of the installed TMB14
motherboard or motherboards.
Normally, for every Transtech TMB14 motherboard with an enabled
VME interface an entry is required in the configuration file.
Configuration file entries should not be made for TMB14s where the
VME interface is disabled.
An entry in the configuration file consists of a list of the following
properties terminated by a semi-colon:
name
The device driver name. Must be set to
“tmb”
.
class
The type of device driver. Must be set to
“vme”
.
reg
A set of three numbers. The corresponding
to the TMB14 registers The first number
specifies the type of VME accesses used
(
0x2d
for A16 mode), the second specifies
the VME start address and the third
specifies the amount of VME memory
space used by the interface registers.
interrupts
A set of two numbers, the first specifying
the VME IRQ level as set by the interrupt
level register on the motherboard, the
second specifying the VME interrupt vector
to use. The VME interrupt vector number
must be different from those used by other
installed VME boards.
vme_mode
The VME access mode used by the
motherboard interface. For a TMB14 this
should be set to
“A16D08”
.
