Here is a config snippet from a machine with

digiboard PC/8 with 16550. It has 8 modems connected

<p><em>Contributed by &a.whiteside;.<newline>26 August
|

1995.</em>
|
||||
|
||||
The procedures to make a Boca 16 pord board with
|
||||
FreeBSD are pretty straightforward, but you will need
|
||||
a couple things to make it work:
|
||||
|
||||
<enum>
|
||||
<item>You either need the kernel sources installed
|
||||
so you can recompile the necessary options or
|
||||
you will need someone else to compile it for you.
|
||||
The 2.0.5 default kernel does <bf>not</bf> come with
|
||||
multiport support enabled and you will need to add
|
||||
a device entry for each port anyways.
|
||||
</item>
|
||||
<item>Two, you will need to know the interrupt and IO
|
||||
setting for your Boca Board so you can set these
|
||||
options properly in the kernel.</item>
|
||||
</enum>
|
||||
|
||||
One important note - the actual UART chips for the
|
||||
Boca 16 are in the connector box, not on the internal
|
||||
board itself. So if you have it unplugged, probes of
|
||||
those ports will fail. I have never tested booting with
|
||||
the box unplugged and plugging it back in, and I
|
||||
suggest you do not either.
|
||||
|
||||
If you do not already have a custom kernel
|
||||
configuration file set up, refer to <ref
|
||||
id="kernelconfig" name="Kernel Configuration"> for
|
||||
general procedures. The following are the specifics
|
||||
for the Boca 16 board and assume you are using the
|
||||
kernel name MYKERNEL and editing with vi.
|
||||
|
||||
<enum>
|
||||
<item>Add the line
|
||||
<tscreen><verb>
|
||||
options "COM_MULTIPORT"
|
||||
</verb></tscreen>
|
||||
to the config file.
|
||||
</item>
|
||||
|
||||
<item>Where the current <tt>device sio
|
||||
<em>xxx</em></tt> lines are, you will need to add
|
||||
16 more devices. <em>Only the last device
|
||||
includes the interrupt vector for the
|
||||
board</em>. (See the <tt>sio(4)</tt> manual page
|
||||
for detail as to why.)
|
||||
|
||||
The following example is for a Boca Board with an
|
||||
interrupt of 3, and a base IO address 100h. The
|
||||
IO address for Each port is +8 hexadecimal from
|
||||
the previous port, thus the 100h, 108h, 110h...
|
||||
addresses.
|
||||
|
||||
<tscreen><verb>
|
||||
device sio1 at isa? port 0x100 tty flags 0x1005
|
||||
device sio2 at isa? port 0x108 tty flags 0x1005
|
||||
device sio3 at isa? port 0x110 tty flags 0x1005
|
||||
device sio4 at isa? port 0x118 tty flags 0x1005
|
||||
[...]
|
||||
device sio15 at isa? port 0x170 tty flags 0x1005
|
||||
device sio16 at isa? port 0x178 tty flags 0x1005 irq 3 vector siointr
|
||||
</verb></tscreen>
|
||||
|
||||
The flags entry <em>must</em> be changed from
|
||||
this example unless you are using the exact same
|
||||
sio assignments. Flags are set according to
|
||||
0x<em>MYY</em> where <em>M</em> indicates the
|
||||
minor number of the master port (the last port on
|
||||
a Boca 16) and <em>YY</em> indicates if FIFO is
|
||||
enabled or disabled(enabled), IRQ sharing is
|
||||
used(yes) and if there is an AST/4 compatible IRQ
|
||||
control register(no).
|
||||
|
||||
In this example,
|
||||
<tscreen><verb>
|
||||
flags 0x1005
|
||||
</verb></tscreen>
|
||||
|
||||
indicates that the master port is sio16. If I
|
||||
added another board and assigned sio17 through
|
||||
sio28, the flags for all 16 ports on
|
||||
<em>that</em> board would be 0x1C05, where 1C
|
||||
indicates the minor number of the master port.
|
||||
Do not change the 05 setting.</item>
|
||||
|
||||
<item>Save and complete the kernel configuration,
|
||||
recompile, install and reboot.
|
||||
|
||||
Presuming you have successfully installed the
|
||||
recompiled kernel and have it set to the correct
|
||||
address and IRQ, your boot message should
|
||||
indicate the successful probe of the Boca ports
|
||||
as follows: (obviously the sio numbers, IO and
|
||||
IRQ could be different)

The flags entry <em>must</em> be changed from
|
||||
this example unless you are using the exact same
|
||||
sio assignments. Flags are set according to
|
||||
0x<em>MYY</em> where <em>M</em> indicates the
|
||||
minor number of the master port (the last port on
|
||||
a Boca 16) and <em>YY</em> indicates if FIFO is
|
||||
enabled or disabled(enabled), IRQ sharing is
|
||||
used(yes) and if there is an AST/4 compatible IRQ
|
||||
control register(no).
|
||||
|
||||
In this example,
|
||||
<tscreen><verb>
|
||||
flags 0x1005
|
||||
</verb></tscreen>
|
||||
|
||||
indicates that the master port is sio16. If I
|
||||
added another board and assigned sio17 through
|
||||
sio28, the flags for all 16 ports on
|
||||
<em>that</em> board would be 0x1C05, where 1C
|
||||
indicates the minor number of the master port.
|
||||
Do not change the 05 setting.</item>
|
||||
|
||||
<item>Save and complete the kernel configuration,
|
||||
recompile, install and reboot.
|
||||
|
||||
Presuming you have successfully installed the
|
||||
recompiled kernel and have it set to the correct
|
||||
address and IRQ, your boot message should
|
||||
indicate the successful probe of the Boca ports
|
||||
as follows: (obviously the sio numbers, IO and
|
||||
IRQ could be different)
