MFP(4)               NetBSD/x68k Kernel Interfaces Manual               MFP(4)


NAME

     mfp -- X68K Multi-function Peripherals


SYNOPSIS

     mfp0 at intio0 addr 0xe88000 size 0x2000 intr 64


DESCRIPTION

     mfp drives Motorola MC68901 MFP (Multi-function Peripheral).  mfp driver
     is always required to run the NetBSD/x68k kernel, because it is connected
     to important devices such as the display controller, and provides funda-
     mental functions like the system clock tick and interrupt controller.
     Since mfp provides many functions, most of the jobs as a device driver is
     done by its child drivers such as kbd(4) and clock(4).  mfp driver itself
     only provides the common way to access its registers and a few utility
     functions for other non-child drivers.

BUGS

     Machine-dependent part and machine-independent part should be split.
