PM5358 S/UNI-4x622 Driver Manual
Hardware Interface
Proprietary and Confidential to PMC-Sierra, Inc. 108
Document ID: PMC-2010419, Issue 1
5 HARDWARE INTERFACE
The S/UNI-4x622 driver interfaces directly with the USER’s hardware. In this section, a listing of
each point of interface is shown, along with a declaration and any specific porting instructions. It
is the responsibility of the USER to connect these requirements into the hardware, either by
defining a macro or by writing a function for each item listed. Care should be taken when
matching parameters and return values.
5.1 Device I/O
Reading from a Device Register: sysSuni4x622Read
This function is the most basic hardware connection. It reads the contents of a specific register
location. This macro should be UINT1 oriented and should be defined by the user to reflect the
target system’s addressing logic. There is no need for error recovery in this function.
Format
#define sysSuni4x622Read(ba, offset)
Prototype
UINT1 sysSuni4x622Read(void * ba, UINT2 offset)
Inputs
ba : base address
offset : offset from the base address
Outputs
None
Returns
value read from the addressed register location
Writing to a Device Register: sysSuni4x622Write
This function is the most basic hardware connection. It writes the supplied value to the specific
register location. This macro should be UINT1 oriented and should be defined by the user to
reflect the target system’s addressing logic. There is no need for error recovery in this function.
Format
#define sysSuni4x622Write(ba, offset, data)
Prototype
UINT1 sysSuni4x622Write(void * ba, UINT2 offset,
UINT1 data)
Inputs
ba : base address
offset : offset from the base address
data : data to be written
Outputs
None
Returns
Value written to the addressed register location
