    UIO: Hilscher CIF card driver · bc4c4f45
    Hans-Jürgen Koch authored
    this is a patch that adds support for Hilscher CIF DeviceNet and
    Profibus cards. I tested it on a Kontron CPX board, and Thomas reviewed
    it.
    
    You can find the user space part here:
    
    http://www.osadl.org/projects/downloads/UIO/user/cif-0.1.0.tar.gz
    
    Notes: cif_api.c is the main file you want to look at. It contains the
    functions to open, close, mmap and so on. cif_dps.c adds functions
    specific to Profibus cards, and cif_dn.c contains functions for
    DeviceNet cards.  cif.c is a universal playground, it's just a small
    test program.  The user space part of this UIO driver is still work in
    progress, and not everything is tested yet. At the moment, the thread in
    cif_api.c contains some code that artificially makes the card generate
    interrupts, this was added for testing and will be removed later. But
    the driver already contains all the functions needed for useful
    operation, so it gives a good idea of how such a thing looks like.
    
    For comparison, here's what you get from the manufacturer
    (www.hilscher.com) when you ask for a Linux 2.6 driver:

    WARNING: Don't look at the code for too long, you might become sick :-)
