examples
This is an example VGA graphics device driver for Tru64 UNIX. The files included in the example are the following:    myvga.h - header file for DDX to include for ioctls    myvga_reg.h - device driver header file    myvga.c - device driver source file    sysconfigtab - sysconfigtab entry for configuration    ecu/isa0099.cfg - ECU config file for EISA configuration Refer to the Writing a Graphics Device Driver and DDX for the Tru64 UNIX X Server and the Installation Instructions and Release Notes manuals in the Device Driver Kit for instructions on how to compile and install a graphics device driver. Note that the Release Notes contain some corrections to the documentation. These PCI examples contain the PCI driver example that is discussed and used in the Writing PCI Bus Device Drivers manual. This example is a PCI device driver for the Digital 2114x Ethernet Network Interface Controller and it includes the following files:    if_tu.c    if_tureg.h In addition, there are file fragments needed to compile, link, and test the example driver. These files are listed below and are discussed in the Writing Kernel Modules manual:    files    sysconfigtab The files contain the network driver example that is discussed and used in the manual. This example includes the following files:    if_el.c    if_elreg.h In addition, there are file fragments needed to compile, link, and test the example driver. These file fragments are discussed in the chapter which describes how to build a kernel module in the Writing Kernel Modules book. They are:    files    sysconfigtab The VME device driver kit contains an exmample for a fictitious /dev/dmaex device. The parts of the example are as follows:    README describes the complete example process to get you started    DM100.list /dev/dmaex registration file    dmaex.c /dev/dmaex device driver source code    dmaexreg.h /dev/dmaex device register header file    /dev/dmaex files file fragment    header file    sysconfigtab /dev/dmaex configuration file    dmaex_test.c /dev/dmaex test program source code   binary file information
