All, I recently tried to plugin and use an Audigy SE PCI card with 2.6.20 and noticed that it would lock up during driver registration. After a little digging, I found that the interrupt routine and a few other functions are relying on the x86 inl() / outl() to read from the sound card. Is anyone aware of a PPC port for this driver? Or if it would be feasible? I haven't ported a driver between architectures before. Or does the inl() / outl() already have PPC equivalent functions and I need to be looking for a PCI configuration problem with my system?
We implement these on PPC. Clearly we don't have x86 style port IO, usually its handled by memory mapped access to a special region of memory that will be converted into a PCI IO space access. - k
