Linux-2.6.12-rc2v2.6.12-rc2
Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.
Let it rip!

2 | The Amiga Buddha and Catweasel IDE Driver (part of ide.c) was written by | ||
3 | Geert Uytterhoeven based on the following specifications: | ||
4 | |||
5 | ------------------------------------------------------------------------ | ||
6 | |||
7 | Register map of the Buddha IDE controller and the | ||
8 | Buddha-part of the Catweasel Zorro-II version | ||
9 | |||
10 | The Autoconfiguration has been implemented just as Commodore | ||
11 | described in their manuals, no tricks have been used (for | ||
12 | example leaving some address lines out of the equations...). | ||
13 | If you want to configure the board yourself (for example let | ||
14 | a Linux kernel configure the card), look at the Commodore | ||
15 | Docs. Reading the nibbles should give this information: | ||
16 | |||
17 | Vendor number: 4626 ($1212) | ||
18 | product number: 0 (42 for Catweasel Z-II) | ||
19 | Serial number: 0 | ||
20 | Rom-vector: $1000 | ||
21 | |||
22 | The card should be a Z-II board, size 64K, not for freemem | ||
23 | list, Rom-Vektor is valid, no second Autoconfig-board on the | ||
24 | same card, no space preference, supports "Shutup_forever". | ||
25 | |||
26 | Setting the base address should be done in two steps, just | ||
27 | as the Amiga Kickstart does: The lower nibble of the 8-Bit | ||
28 | address is written to $4a, then the whole Byte is written to | ||
29 | $48, while it doesn't matter how often you're writing to $4a | ||
30 | as long as $48 is not touched. After $48 has been written, | ||
31 | the whole card disappears from $e8 and is mapped to the new | ||
32 | address just written. Make shure $4a is written before $48, | ||
33 | otherwise your chance is only 1:16 to find the board :-). | ||
34 | |||
35 | The local memory-map is even active when mapped to $e8: | ||
36 | |||
37 | $0-$7e Autokonfig-space, see Z-II docs. | ||
38 | |||
39 | $80-$7fd reserved | ||
40 | |||
41 | $7fe Speed-select Register: Read & Write | ||
42 | (description see further down) | ||
43 | |||
44 | $800-$8ff IDE-Select 0 (Port 0, Register set 0) | ||
45 | |||
46 | $900-$9ff IDE-Select 1 (Port 0, Register set 1) | ||
47 | |||
48 | $a00-$aff IDE-Select 2 (Port 1, Register set 0) | ||
49 | |||
50 | $b00-$bff IDE-Select 3 (Port 1, Register set 1) | ||
51 | |||
52 | $c00-$cff IDE-Select 4 (Port 2, Register set 0, | ||
53 | Catweasel only!) | ||
54 | |||
55 | $d00-$dff IDE-Select 5 (Port 3, Register set 1, | ||
56 | Catweasel only!) | ||
57 | |||
58 | $e00-$eff local expansion port, on Catweasel Z-II the | ||
59 | Catweasel registers are also mapped here. | ||
60 | Never touch, use multidisk.device! | ||
61 | |||
62 | $f00 read only, Byte-access: Bit 7 shows the | ||
63 | level of the IRQ-line of IDE port 0. | ||
64 | |||
65 | $f01-$f3f mirror of $f00 | ||
66 | |||
67 | $f40 read only, Byte-access: Bit 7 shows the | ||
68 | level of the IRQ-line of IDE port 1. | ||
69 | |||
70 | $f41-$f7f mirror of $f40 | ||
71 | |||
72 | $f80 read only, Byte-access: Bit 7 shows the | ||
73 | level of the IRQ-line of IDE port 2. | ||
74 | (Catweasel only!) | ||
75 | |||
76 | $f81-$fbf mirror of $f80 | ||
77 | |||
78 | $fc0 write-only: Writing any value to this | ||
79 | register enables IRQs to be passed from the | ||
80 | IDE ports to the Zorro bus. This mechanism | ||
81 | has been implemented to be compatible with | ||
82 | harddisks that are either defective or have | ||
83 | a buggy firmware and pull the IRQ line up | ||
84 | while starting up. If interrupts would | ||
85 | always be passed to the bus, the computer | ||
86 | might not start up. Once enabled, this flag | ||
87 | can not be disabled again. The level of the | ||
88 | flag can not be determined by software | ||
89 | (what for? Write to me if it's necessary!). | ||
90 | |||
91 | $fc1-$fff mirror of $fc0 | ||
92 | |||
93 | $1000-$ffff Buddha-Rom with offset $1000 in the rom | ||
94 | chip. The addresses $0 to $fff of the rom | ||
95 | chip cannot be read. Rom is Byte-wide and | ||
96 | mapped to even addresses. | ||
97 | |||
98 | The IDE ports issue an INT2. You can read the level of the | ||
99 | IRQ-lines of the IDE-ports by reading from the three (two | ||
100 | for Buddha-only) registers $f00, $f40 and $f80. This way | ||
101 | more than one I/O request can be handled and you can easily | ||
102 | determine what driver has to serve the INT2. Buddha and | ||
103 | Catweasel expansion boards can issue an INT6. A separate | ||
104 | memory map is available for the I/O module and the sysop's | ||
105 | I/O module. | ||
106 | |||
107 | The IDE ports are fed by the address lines A2 to A4, just as | ||
108 | the Amiga 1200 and Amiga 4000 IDE ports are. This way | ||
109 | existing drivers can be easily ported to Buddha. A move.l | ||
110 | polls two words out of the same address of IDE port since | ||
111 | every word is mirrored once. movem is not possible, but | ||
112 | it's not necessary either, because you can only speedup | ||
113 | 68000 systems with this technique. A 68020 system with | ||
114 | fastmem is faster with move.l. | ||
115 | |||
116 | If you're using the mirrored registers of the IDE-ports with | ||
117 | A6=1, the Buddha doesn't care about the speed that you have | ||
118 | selected in the speed register (see further down). With | ||
119 | A6=1 (for example $840 for port 0, register set 0), a 780ns | ||
120 | access is being made. These registers should be used for a | ||
121 | command access to the harddisk/CD-Rom, since command | ||
122 | accesses are Byte-wide and have to be made slower according | ||
123 | to the ATA-X3T9 manual. | ||
124 | |||
125 | Now for the speed-register: The register is byte-wide, and | ||
126 | only the upper three bits are used (Bits 7 to 5). Bit 4 | ||
127 | must always be set to 1 to be compatible with later Buddha | ||
128 | versions (if I'll ever update this one). I presume that | ||
129 | I'll never use the lower four bits, but they have to be set | ||
130 | to 1 by definition. | ||
131 | The values in this table have to be shifted 5 bits to the | ||
132 | left and or'd with $1f (this sets the lower 5 bits). | ||
133 | |||
134 | All the timings have in common: Select and IOR/IOW rise at | ||
135 | the same time. IOR and IOW have a propagation delay of | ||
136 | about 30ns to the clocks on the Zorro bus, that's why the | ||
137 | values are no multiple of 71. One clock-cycle is 71ns long | ||
138 | (exactly 70,5 at 14,18 Mhz on PAL systems). | ||
139 | |||
140 | value 0 (Default after reset) | ||
141 | |||
142 | 497ns Select (7 clock cycles) , IOR/IOW after 172ns (2 clock cycles) | ||
143 | (same timing as the Amiga 1200 does on it's IDE port without | ||
144 | accelerator card) | ||
145 | |||
146 | value 1 | ||
147 | |||
148 | 639ns Select (9 clock cycles), IOR/IOW after 243ns (3 clock cycles) | ||
149 | |||
150 | value 2 | ||
151 | |||
152 | 781ns Select (11 clock cycles), IOR/IOW after 314ns (4 clock cycles) | ||
153 | |||
154 | value 3 | ||
155 | |||
156 | 355ns Select (5 clock cycles), IOR/IOW after 101ns (1 clock cycle) | ||
157 | |||
158 | value 4 | ||
159 | |||
160 | 355ns Select (5 clock cycles), IOR/IOW after 172ns (2 clock cycles) | ||
161 | |||
162 | value 5 | ||
163 | |||
164 | 355ns Select (5 clock cycles), IOR/IOW after 243ns (3 clock cycles) | ||
165 | |||
166 | value 6 | ||
167 | |||
168 | 1065ns Select (15 clock cycles), IOR/IOW after 314ns (4 clock cycles) | ||
169 | |||
170 | value 7 | ||
171 | |||
172 | 355ns Select, (5 clock cycles), IOR/IOW after 101ns (1 clock cycle) | ||
173 | |||
174 | When accessing IDE registers with A6=1 (for example $84x), | ||
175 | the timing will always be mode 0 8-bit compatible, no matter | ||
176 | what you have selected in the speed register: | ||
177 | |||
178 | 781ns select, IOR/IOW after 4 clock cycles (=314ns) aktive. | ||
179 | |||
180 | All the timings with a very short select-signal (the 355ns | ||
181 | fast accesses) depend on the accelerator card used in the | ||
182 | system: Sometimes two more clock cycles are inserted by the | ||
183 | bus interface, making the whole access 497ns long. This | ||
184 | doesn't affect the reliability of the controller nor the | ||
185 | performance of the card, since this doesn't happen very | ||
186 | often. | ||
187 | |||
188 | All the timings are calculated and only confirmed by | ||
189 | measurements that allowed me to count the clock cycles. If | ||
190 | the system is clocked by an oscillator other than 28,37516 | ||
191 | Mhz (for example the NTSC-frequency 28,63636 Mhz), each | ||
192 | clock cycle is shortened to a bit less than 70ns (not worth | ||
193 | mentioning). You could think of a small performance boost | ||
194 | by overclocking the system, but you would either need a | ||
195 | multisync monitor, or a graphics card, and your internal | ||
196 | diskdrive would go crazy, that's why you shouldn't tune your | ||
197 | Amiga this way. | ||
198 | |||
199 | Giving you the possibility to write software that is | ||
200 | compatible with both the Buddha and the Catweasel Z-II, The | ||
201 | Buddha acts just like a Catweasel Z-II with no device | ||
202 | connected to the third IDE-port. The IRQ-register $f80 | ||
203 | always shows a "no IRQ here" on the Buddha, and accesses to | ||
204 | the third IDE port are going into data's Nirwana on the | ||
205 | Buddha. | ||
