DESCRIPTION
The machine-independent ISA subsystem provides support for the ISA bus. The ISA bus was introduced on the IBM PC/AT. It is an extension to the original bus found on the original IBM PC. The ISA bus is essentially the host bus of the Intel 80286 processor, however the widespread accep- tance of the bus as a de facto standard has seen it appear on systems without Intel processors. The ISA bus has a 16-bit data bus, a 24-bit memory address bus, a 16-bit I/O address bus, and operates at 8MHz. It provides 15 interrupt lines and 8 DMA channels supporting DMA transfers of 64KB or 128KB transfers depending on the width of the channel being used. Historically, some devices only decoded the 10 lowest bits of the I/O address bus, prevent- ing use of the full 16-bit address space. On newer machines, the ISA bus is no longer connected directly to the host bus, and is usually connected via a PCI-ISA bridge. Either way, the bus looks the same to the device driver.
DATA TYPES
Drivers for devices attached to the ISA bus will make use of the follow- ing data types: isa_chipset_tag_t Chipset tag for the ISA bus. struct isa_attach_args Location hints for devices are recorded in this structure. It contains the following members: bus_space_tag_t ia_iot; /* isa i/o space tag */ bus_space_tag_t ia_memt; /* isa mem space tag */ bus_dma_tag_t ia_dmat; /* DMA tag */ isa_chipset_tag_t ia_ic; int ia_iobase; /* base i/o address */ int ia_iosize; /* span of ports used */ int ia_maddr; /* physical mem addr */ u_int ia_msize; /* size of memory */ int ia_irq; /* interrupt request */ int ia_drq; /* DMA request */ int ia_drq2; /* second DMA request */ void *ia_aux; /* driver specific */
FUNCTIONS
isa_intr_alloc(ic, mask, type, irq) This function is generally not required by device drivers. It is used by bridges attaching other busses to the ISA bus. isa_intr_evcnt(ic, irq) Returns the event counter associated with interrupt line irq. isa_intr_establish(ic, irq, type, level, handler, arg) To establish an ISA interrupt handler, a driver calls isa_intr_establish() with the interrupt number irq, type type, and level level. When the interrupt occurs the function handler is called with argument arg. Valid values for type are: IST_NONE Reserve interrupt, but don't actually establish. IST_EDGE Edge-triggered interrupt. IST_LEVEL Level-triggered interrupt. IST_PULSE Pulse-triggered interrupt. isa_intr_establish() returns an opaque handle to an event descriptor if it succeeds, and returns NULL on failure. isa_intr_disestablish(ic, ih) Dis-establish the interrupt handler with handle ih. The handle was returned from isa_intr_establish(). isa_drq_alloc(ic, chan) Reserves the DMA channel chan for future use. Normally, this call precedes an isa_dmamap_create() call. It is an error to start DMA on a channel that has not been reserved with isa_drq_alloc(). isa_drq_free(ic, chan) Marks the DMA channel chan as available again. isa_dmamap_create(ic, chan, size, flags) Creates a DMA map for channel chan. It is initialised to accept maximum DMA transfers of size size. Valid values for the flags argument are the same as for bus_dmamap_create() (see bus_dma(9)). This function returns zero on success or an error value on failure. isa_dmamap_destroy(ic, chan) Destroy the DMA map for DMA channel chan. isa_dmamem_alloc(ic, chan, size, addrp, flags) Allocate DMA-safe memory of size size for channel chan. Valid values for the flags argument are the same as for bus_dmamem_alloc() (see bus_dma(9)). The bus-address of the memory is returned in addrp. This function returns zero on suc- cess or an error value on failure. isa_dmamem_free(ic, chan, addr, size) Frees memory previously allocated by isa_dmamem_alloc() for channel chan. The bus-address and size of the memory are speci- fied by addr and size respectively. isa_dmamem_map(ic, chan, addr, size, kvap, flags) Maps DMA-safe memory (allocated with isa_dmamem_alloc()) speci- fied by bus-address addr and of size size into kernel virtual address space for DMA channel chan. Valid values for the flags argument are the same as for bus_dmamem_map() (see bus_dma(9)). The kernel virtual address is returned in kvap. This function returns zero on success or an error value on failure. isa_dmamem_unmap(ic, chan, kva, size) Unmaps memory (previously mapped with isa_dmamem_map()) of size size for channel chan. The kernel virtual address space used by the mapping is freed. isa_malloc(ic, chan, size, pool, flags) This function is a shortcut for allocating and mapping DMA-safe memory in a single step. The arguments correspond with the arguments to isa_dmamem_alloc() and isa_dmamem_map(). The argu- ment pool is a pool to record the memory allocation. This func- tion returns a pointer to the DMA-safe memory. isa_free(addrp, pool) This function is a shortcut for unmapping and deallocating DMA- safe memory in a single step. It replaces isa_dmamem_unmap() and isa_dmamem_free(). The argument addrp is the pointer to the DMA-safe memory returned by isa_malloc(). The argument pool is the same as the value passed to isa_malloc(). isa_dmastart(ic, chan, addr, size, lwp, flags, bf) Load DMA memory specified by address addr of size size into the DMA controller at channel chan and set it in motion. The argu- ment lwp is used to indicate the address space in which the buffer is located. If NULL, the buffer is assumed to be in ker- nel space. Otherwise, the buffer is assumed to be in lwp lwp 's address space. The argument flags describes the type of ISA DMA. Valid values are: DMAMODE_WRITE DMA transfer from host to device. DMAMODE_READ DMA transfer to host from device. DMAMODE_SINGLE Transfer buffer once and stop. DMAMODE_DEMAND Demand mode. DMAMODE_LOOP Transfer buffer continuously in loop until notified to stop. DMAMODE_LOOPDEMAND Transfer buffer continuously in loop and demand mode. The argument bf is the bus-space flags. Valid values are the same as for bus_dmamap_load() (see bus_dma(9)). isa_dmaabort(ic, chan) Abort a DMA transfer on channel chan. isa_dmacount(ic, chan) Returns the offset in the DMA memory of the current DMA transfer on channel chan. isa_dmadone(ic, chan) Unloads the DMA memory on channel chan after a DMA transfer has completed. isa_dmamaxsize(ic, chan) Returns the maximum allowable DMA transfer size for channel chan. isa_drq_isfree(ic, chan) If the ia_drq or ia_drq2 members of struct isa_attach_args are wildcarded, then the driver is expected to probe the hardware for valid DMA channels. In this case, the driver can check to see if the hardware-supported DMA channel chan is available for use. isa_dmacascade(ic, chan) Programs the 8237 DMA controller channel chan to accept external DMA control by the device hardware. isa_mappage(mem, offset, prot) Provides support for user mmap(2)'ing of DMA-safe memory.
AUTOCONFIGURATION
The ISA bus is an indirect-connection bus. During autoconfiguration each driver is required to probe the bus for the presence of a device. An ISA driver will receive a pointer to struct isa_attach_args hinting at "loca- tions" on the ISA bus where the device may be located. They should use the ia_iobase, ia_iosize, ia_maddr, and ia_msize members. Not all of these hints will be necessary; locators may be wildcarded with IOBASEUNK and MADDRUNK for ia_iobase and ia_maddr respectively. If a driver can probe the device for configuration information at default locations, it may update the members of struct isa_attach_args. The IRQ and DMA loca- tors can also be wildcarded with IRQUNK and DRQUNK respectively. During the driver attach step, the I/O and memory address spaces should be mapped (see bus_space(9)).
DMA SUPPORT
Extensive DMA facilities are provided for the ISA bus. A driver can use up to two DMA channels simultaneously. The DMA channels allocated during autoconfiguration are passed to the driver during the driver attach using the ia_drq and ia_drq2 members of struct isa_attach_args. Before allocating resources for DMA transfers on the ISA bus, a driver should check the maximum allowable DMA transfer size for the DMA channel using isa_dmamaxsize(). A DMA map should be created first using isa_dmamap_create(). A DMA map describes how DMA memory is loaded into the DMA controllers. Only DMA- safe memory can be used for DMA transfers. DMA-safe memory is allocated using isa_dmamem_alloc(). The memory allocated by isa_dmamem_alloc() must now be mapped into kernel virtual address space by isa_dmamem_map() so that it can be accessed by the driver. For a DMA transfer from the host to the device, the driver will fill the DMA memory with the data to be transferred. The DMA-transfer of the mem- ory is started using isa_dmastart() with flags containing DMAMODE_WRITE. When the DMA transfer is completed, a call to isa_dmadone() cleans up the DMA transfer by unloading the memory from the controller. For a DMA transfer from the device to the host, the DMA-transfer is started using isa_dmastart() with flags containing DMAMODE_READ. When the DMA transfer is completed, a call to isa_dmadone() cleans up the DMA transfer by unloading the memory from the controller. The memory can now be access by the driver. When the DMA resources are no longer required they should be released using isa_dmamem_unmap(), isa_dmamem_free() and isa_dmamap_destroy().

BUGS
The previous behaviour of isa_intr_establish() was to invoke panic() on failure. isa_intr_establish() now returns NULL on failure. Some old drivers written for the former behaviour discard the return value. NetBSD 9.0 January 29, 2006 NetBSD 9.0
