NAME
pcic -- PC Card bridge driver
SYNOPSIS
device pcic device card
DESCRIPTION
The pcic driver controls the PC Card subsystem. The pcic driver supports most ExCA devices attached to either ISA or PCI bus. The pcic driver does not support the so-called TCIC controllers made by Databook. Nor does it support the MECIA chipset found in some early PC98 NOTE PC machines. The mecia driver now supports that bridge. The following ISA devices, or true clones, are supported in the current code. Intel i82365SL Step A Intel i82365SL Step B Intel i82365SL Step C Intel's original 16-bit PC Card controller. Intel i82365SL-DF Intel's last version of this device. 3.3V support was added. VLSI 82C146 An older VLSI part with some issues on some machines. Cirrus Logic PD-6710 Cirrus Logic PD-6720 Cirrus Logic PD-6722 Cirrus Logic's pcic controller. Compatible with the i82365SL Step C with the addition of a differ- ent 3.3V control. Ricoh RF5C296 Ricoh RF5C396 Ricoh's PC Card bridge chips. These are compati- ble with the i82365SL Step C, but with yet another different 3.3V control. Vadem 365 Vadem 465 Compatible with i82365SL Step C. Vadem 468 Vadem 469 Like the earlier Vadem models, but with Vadem's own, incompatible, 3.3V control system. IBM PCIC IBM clone of the original i82365SL part, with its own ID register value. Has no 3.3V ability. IBM KING A strange clone of i82365SL. This part has many restrictions not found in the i82365SL, plus some strange power control. It has not been tested in ages, but is believed to work. Its use is believed to be confined to model of ISA card, available only in Japan. Many other vendors made parts in this arena, but most of them were com- patible with one of the above chipsets. The following PCI cardbus and pcmcia bridges are supported: Cirrus Logic PD6729 Cirrus Logic PD6730 These chips require special configuration when they are on an add-in PCI card. Cirrus Logic PD6832 Cirrus Logic PD6833 O2micro OZ6872 O2 Micro chips may be poorly supported because the author does not have good access to machines with one of these bridges in it. Ricoh RL4C475 Ricoh RL4C476 Ricoh RL4C477 Ricoh RL4C478 TI PCI-1031 TI PCI-1130 TI PCI-1131 TI PCI-1211 TI PCI-1220 TI PCI-1221 TI PCI-1225 TI PCI-1250 TI PCI-1251 TI PCI-1251B TI PCI-1410 TI PCI-1420 TI PCI-1450 TI PCI-1451 TI PCI-4451 Toshiba ToPIC95 Toshiba ToPIC97 Toshiba ToPIC100
FILES
/dev/card0 Character device for the pcic driver.
MODES OF OPERATION
The ISA device supports routing ISA interrupts only. You cannot share ISA interrupts. Every interrupt must be unique. The PCI device supports routing ISA or PCI interrupts. PCI interrupts are sharable. ISA interrupts are not sharable. PCI interrupts should be used unless your machine has a specific problem using them. PCI interrupt routing is the default for PCI devices. Some older laptops require ISA interrupt routing to work properly. To enable ISA interrupt routing, you must set the tunable hw.pcic.intr_path=1 in /boot/loader.conf. For the present, unless you have a one slot machine, you should set hw.pcic.irq=0 to force polling mode. Two slot machines have minor issues with using an ISA interrupt for the CSC interrupt.
TUNABLES
hw.pcic.ignore_function_1 Needed for some, improperly manufactured PCI cards made by Orinoco. It disables function 1 completely. Set to 0 to enable function 1. Set to 1 to disable function 1. This tunable gener- ally should not be needed on laptops. The default is 0. hw.pcic.init_routing Some machines can tolerate interrupt routing selection at the cardbus bridge level. Others fail when you mess with these reg- isters. Set to 1 to force the chipset to route via parallel PCI of 1 means route via ISA. A value of 2 means route via PCI. This is ignored for the ISA device. Many older laptops do not have PCI BIOS implementations that FreeBSD can use to route interrupts properly. These laptops may need to set this to 1 and hw.pcic.irq to a value (or 0 for polling). The default is 2. hw.pcic.irq Overrides the IRQ to use for ISA interrupt routing of the CSC or management interrupt. If you are using the ISA device, you can set this tunable, or use the irq N clause in config file. If you are using a PCI device in ISA interrupt mode (see hw.pcic.intr_path), then you must set the interrupt with this sysctl, or polling mode will be used. Due to limitations in the tunable system, only one interrupt can be selected for all cards. Systems with multiple PCI bridges that need to use ISA routing are encouraged to use polling mode on each of the cards. The default is 0. hw.pcic.ignore_pci Defaults to 0. Set to 1 to completely ignore the cardbus bridge. This may help some old laptops work. Setting to 1 on newer lap- tops will almost certainly fail.
HISTORY
Too long to detail in the man page.
BUGS
Too many to list. Some are the fault of the standard. Some are the fault of bad standard compliance. Some are Warner's fault. These driv- ers are known as OLDCARD in other parts of the documentation. FreeBSD 5.4 August 25, 2001 FreeBSD 5.4
