35.Nd ELBOX Mediator 1200 PCI bridge driver
36.Sh SYNOPSIS
37.Cd "empb0 at zbus0"

42.Sh DESCRIPTION
43The
44.Nm
45driver provides support for the PCI bus present on Mediator 1200 bridge for
46Amiga 1200.
47.Sh HARDWARE
48The
49.Nm
50driver supports the following hardware:
51.Bl -tag -offset indent
52.It ELBOX Mediator PCI 1200
53.It ELBOX Mediator PCI 1200 LT2
54.It ELBOX Mediator PCI 1200 LT4
55.It ELBOX Mediator PCI 1200 SX
56.It ELBOX Mediator PCI 1200 TX

58.Sh DIAGNOSTICS

60.It empb: linear space mapping might not work
61The PCI card driver is trying map memory space with the
62.Dv BUS_SPACE_MAP_LINEAR
63flag.
64Due to the windowed design of Mediator, it is expected to fail miserably if
65normal memory space access methods (e.g., pointer dereference) are used
66instead of
67.Xr bus_space 9
68methods.
69.It empb%d: couldn't find memory space, check your WINDOW jumper
70PCI memory space access is disabled on a hardware level.
71The
72.Nm
73driver will work anyway, but only PCI I/O space will be accessible.
74To enable memory space set the WINDOW jumper to 4MB or 8MB.

81.Sh HISTORY
82The
83.Nm
84device first appeared in
85.Nx 7.0 .

88The
89.Nm
90driver was written by
91.An Radoslaw Kujawa Aq Mt radoslaw.kujawa@gmail.com .
92It was developed using information obtained through reverse engineering
93by
94.An Frank Wille
95and
96.An Radoslaw Kujawa .
97The authors have no access to official
98documentation (which is only available under NDA).
99.Sh CAVEATS
100Mediator ZIV might work but is untested.
101.Sh BUGS
102DMA to host memory is not supported.
103This is a hardware limitation.
104It is possible to implement DMA through bounce buffers in graphics card memory,
105but this needs further research.
