Jon does your emulator sit on top of the new legacy I/O and memory APIs? I added them for this very reason, though atm only ia64 supports them. There's documentation in Documentation/filesystems/sysfs-pci.txt if you want to take a look. On kernels that support it, sysfs can be a one stop shop for all your gfx programming needs, since it provides access to the rom, PCI resources (i.e. MMIO ranges, fb memory, etc.) and legacy I/O ports and memory.
Thanks for the info. Actually the is what /sys/bus/graphics is for. I'm working on some patchs to migrate the fbdev subsystem to using it. ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by: IntelliVIEW -- Interactive Reporting Tool for open source databases.
