NAME

pcic– Intel i82365SL PC Card Interface Controller

DESCRIPTION

The Intel i82365SL PC Card Interface Controller provides one or more PCMCIA PC Card sockets. The pcic driver implements a PCMCIA bus nexus driver.

The driver provides basic support for the Intel 82365SL and compatible chips. The chips that have been tested are:

• Intel 82365SL

• Cirrus Logic PD6710/PD6720/PD6722

• Vadem VG365/VG465/VG468/VG469

• Toshiba PCIC and ToPIC

• Ricoh RF5C366

• Texas Instruments PCI1130/PCI1131/PCI1031

While most systems using one of these chips should work, there are enough options left to the hardware designer that are not software detectable that some systems will not be supported. Note that systems with CardBus interfaces are only supported in the non-legacy mode. Systems that only initialize the bridge to legacy mode and don't configure the PCI memory will not be supported.

Direct access to the PCMCIA hardware is not supported. All device access must be through the Card Services interface of the DDI.

CONFIGURATION

Driver Configuration

There is one driver configuration property defined in the pcic.conf file.

interrupt-priorities=11;

This property must be defined and must not be modified from the default value.
