Hi Daris,

         I'm having a little trouble locating the source you were talking
about. I have tried looking at http://qslinux.org/snmc/qslinux/kernel  and
http://qslinux.org/snmc/qspin but they come up as 404 Not Found. I have
also looked at your ftp site under ftp://qslinux.org/snmc/qslinux/kernel
and ftp://qslinux.org/snmc/qspin with no luck. I was able to find
ftp://qslinux.org/pub/qslinux/ with complete source tar files. Do I have to
down load one of these?

         Thanks for the help.

Hello Conn,

I wrote a nice little I/O control subsystem for the MPC850.  It is in
QSLinux (http://qslinux.org, ftp::/qslinux.org), and is in the
subdirectories snmc/qslinux/kernel and snmc/qspin.

The subsystem gives you the ability to check, request, and configure the
function of the I/O pins on the MPC850.  It is modeled after the I/O
address allocator for the 80x86 architecture.  You can access the
subsystem either from kernel space, or from a user space program.

You will need to modify the subsystem for operation with other MPC8xx
processor (i.e. the MPC860 has more I/O pins). But this should not be
difficult.

I don't have a command-line driven program that interfaces to the
subsystem, but if you write one and are willing to share it I would love
to have a copy :-).

Regards,
Daris

Conn,

Sorry for the confusion.  You will need to download the tarball for the
qslinux source, expand that out, and then look in the directories
snmc/qslinux/kernel and snmc/qspin.

You can download the latest kernel tarball from:

	ftp://qslinux.org/pub/qslinux/

Regards,
Daris
