NAME
dsp56k - DSP56001 interface device
SYNOPSIS
#include <asm/dsp56k.h>
ssize_t read(int fd, void *data, size_t length);
ssize_t write(int fd, void *data, size_t length);
int ioctl(int fd, DSP56K_UPLOAD, struct dsp56k_upload *program);
int ioctl(int fd, DSP56K_SET_TX_WSIZE, int wsize);
int ioctl(int fd, DSP56K_SET_RX_WSIZE, int wsize);
int ioctl(int fd, DSP56K_HOST_FLAGS, struct dsp56k_host_flags *flags);
int ioctl(int fd, DSP56K_HOST_CMD, int cmd);
CONFIGURATION
The dsp56k device is a character device with major number 55 and minor
number 0.
DESCRIPTION
The Motorola DSP56001 is a fully programmable 24-bit digital signal
processor found in Atari Falcon030-compatible computers.
The dsp56k special file is used to control the DSP56001, and
to send and receive data using the bidirectional handshaked host
port.
To send a data stream to the signal processor, use
write(2)
to the
device, and
read(2)
to receive processed data.
The data can be sent or
received in 8, 16, 24, or 32-bit quantities on the host side, but will
always be seen as 24-bit quantities in the DSP56001.
The following
ioctl(2)
calls are used to control the
dsp56k device:
- DSP56K_UPLOAD
-
resets the DSP56001 and uploads a program.
The third
ioctl(2)
argument must be a pointer to a struct dsp56k_binary with members
bin pointing to a DSP56001 binary program, and len set to
the length of the program, counted in 24-bit words.
- DSP56K_SET_TX_WSIZE
-
sets the transmit word size.
Allowed values are in the range 1 to 4,
and is the number of bytes that will be sent at a time to the
DSP56001.
These data quantities will either be padded with zero
bytes, or truncated to fit the native 24-bit data format of the
DSP56001.
- DSP56K_SET_RX_WSIZE
-
sets the receive word size.
Allowed values are in the range 1 to 4,
and is the number of bytes that will be received at a time from the
DSP56001.
These data quantities will either truncated, or padded with
a null byte ('\0') to fit the native 24-bit data format of the DSP56001.
- DSP56K_HOST_FLAGS
-
read and write the host flags.
The host flags are four
general-purpose bits that can be read by both the hosting computer and
the DSP56001.
Bits 0 and 1 can be written by the host, and bits 2 and
3 can be written by the DSP56001.
To access the host flags, the third
ioctl(2)
argument must be a pointer
to a struct dsp56k_host_flags.
If bit 0 or 1 is set in the
dir member, the corresponding bit in out will be written
to the host flags.
The state of all host flags will be returned in
the lower four bits of the status member.
- DSP56K_HOST_CMD
-
sends a host command.
Allowed values are in the range 0 to 31, and is a
user-defined command handled by the program running in the DSP56001.
